Leafs week in preview: January 29th - Febuary 4th

Malkin-71.net

After a perfect two game week last week heading into the All-Star game, the Leafs are headed towards a rather grueling week in comparison, playing a back to back and the standard HNIC game. As are most weeks it's crucial for the Leafs to win two of three and get back into the playoff picture. With the three way tie for 7th and the nice little rest the boys got this weekend, I think it's safe to say it would be disappointing if the Leafs weren't at least in 8th by Sunday.

Leafs week in preview: January 22nd - 28th


"Hey Phil, your car as nice as this one?"


Again we say: "forget about last week, the Leafs are in the playoff hunt!" The Leafs are in 9th still, now 2 points behind the Washington Capitals for 8th. All is not lost: the PK is solved and James Reimer will put up god like numbers again, yes, Phil Kessel is slumping (the goalless total is at about 78 hours now) but Lupul is as hot as ever, and he's playing some pretty good hockey too. No Saturday night game this week as Phil Kessel, Joffery Lupul and Don Phaneuf (my new nickname for him) booked it off.

Leafs Week in preview: Jan 15th - 21st

Hah, yeah, OK. What? you traded me? JUST NOW?
Well,  last weekend sucked. But we move on, in fact we move onto a whole new week of games! A whole new week of games against teams that are supposed to be worse then our Toronto Maple Leafs.

Leafs week in preview: Jan 8th - 14th 2012

So Golf is for terrible hockey players!


The second half is here! Where the Maple Leafs start to play for real! If last year is any indication of what will happen, a young goalie, who we have never given a second thought too, will emerge as an all-star and Phil Kessel will start scoring at a PPG rate (booya!).


This week is make or break for the young leafs (oh, no wait that was last week). In reality the Leafs could lose all three of the games they play this week and still make the playoffs, but that wouldn't be the best thing for them, or our livers. So let's see who we have to beat this week.
