Actually, the DEVILS are the worst team in hockey ( at least statistically).
You're correct. The Devils are absolutely disgraceful! What the hell ever happened to that once great team?

Lou Lam listened to ownership's insistence on getting Kovelchuk, thus the deal with the devil was made, thus with the salary cap, has crippled them, bottom line, not even a new coach will save them this season.
Just because the name's the same, don't expect Dane Phaneuf to be a carbon copy of his better known sibling.
Maple Leafs FINALLY arrive home in Toronto
Jonas Siegel, the AM640 Leafs reporter who travels with the team, chronicled on his blog how everything that could go wrong did go wrong.
i give that cheap shot artist punk chris neil a little credit tho, after 3 or 4 punches to the jaw, he still didnt go down, kudos to him for that, if that was coming from a brian gionta or a daniel alfredsson, thats one thing, but he took those shots from Colton Orr.
I agree 100% lg. After all, skilled hockey players are seldom good fighters (some notable exceptions: Gordie Howe, Bobby Orr, Larry Robinson) whereas goons are paid solely for their punching skills and can therefore usually hit harder.

This cannot be argued. The Maple Leafs had few assets before Brian Burke took over. They have quite a few now.
Nothing, of course, that'll bring back that first round pick next June (Interesting how 2010 second overall Tyler Seguin has fewer points and fewer goals than undrafted Tyler Bozak). But tangible, solid pieces that other teams desire.
That's why he's getting offers on Kris Versteeg, a 24-year-old with a Stanley Cup ring. (worth noting Viktor Stalberg has six goals to Versteeg's 10, hasn't scored since Nov. 14 and is just back from his second concussion in two seasons). Just a guess, but I suspect it's the tightly packed Southeast Division teams that are most interested in Versteeg.
The youngster has just started to play well, including working the point on the Toronto power play. Do they really want to move him now?
.
DO NOT trade Versteeg! not unless a Brad Richards comes back, and that isnt happening, so dont mess with Kris, he has tremendous upside at his age.... as far as Clarke MacCarthur, i would try to sign him to a 2 yr deal at 2mil per and see if he takes it. if not, then think about trading him, in 2 years the kids down on the farm will be ready to step in and fill his role if in fact this is just a aberration. if he is the real deal, and given the playing time like he has been given this year, i would sign him. He is a smart player on the ice, skilled and great hands, i am sure Burke is getting alot of teams asking about him, but not sure trading him is the answer, of course, UNLESS something of great value comes back our way.
Leafs are a joke.
Bruins are favoured to get another top 5 pick this year.
Way to go Burkie!!
Leafs played a solid game tonight, showing they can contend with some of the best in the NHL....
Still a die-hard Leafs fan.....but a realistic & honest one.
Go Leafs Go!
