no big loss, but then again, he was the habs 4th leading scorer , and on that horrible offense, every point counts!
Remind me again, where are the Leafs in the standings? Yeah, that's what I thought.

Says the man who's Laffs are where in the standings...
Oh, there they are...I wasn't at the bottom yet...
"I really don't like them. They're a rival and they're in our division," said Ryan Miller, who has won all 10 games during the Sabres winning streak over Toronto. "They constantly talk about how they're going to rough me up every night. I love nothing more than to get a win against them and send them an hour-and-a-half on their way."
Halak is a very good backup goalie. Price is the franchise. Check their stats & the calibre of teams each has faced. Enough said. I win again!
7 points out of a playoff spot and having played badly the last 2 weeks, with a start to the season of 0-7-1, with 35 plus games to go? i will take that in the First full year of Burkes rebuilding, lots of time left to get the 8th playoff spot...
and your team jman is? lemme guess, BosDone?
No bro, I told you before...I really never followed hockey, so I have adopted the typical Yankee fan mentality to selecting a fav...I went and looked to see who has the most cups?
Ahhh..The Habs...Viola! - a new Habs fan is born!
you are a funny little habbie fan now arent ya? you must be so proud your team is a mere 7 points ahead of what you call the terrible leafs , with 35 or so games to go... proud proud habbie arent you? even your buddys scapegoat team as of this day are not in the playoffs should the season be done today, but your buddy always has his real team, the hapless habs, to fall back on.......... geez, not much to fall back on now is it?
Points Before Saturday games: Detroit 50 points in 43 games
Montreal 47 points in 46 games
Toronto 39 points in 45 games
Detroit has eleven MORE points than Toronto despite playing two LESS games. This is in spite of the fact that Detroit is in a rebuilding phase. There is absolutely no comparison: Detroit is and will be among the elite teams of the league while Toronto is, has been, and will continue to be among the absolute dregs. By the way, you should ask someone to explain to you the correct meaning of the word scapegoat.
your team is a mere 7 points ahead of what you call the terrible leafs , ,
That’s what you said last week, and the week before that and the week before that and the week before that ... The Leafs are only 6 points back with 70 games to go, or 5 points back with 60 games to go, or 7 points back with 50 games to go, or 9 points back with 36 games to go ...
So is there a special provision I don't know about in hockey when the playoff teams are selected?!
If the Laffs are 1 point back with 0 games to go, do they make the playoffs?
LOL....

The Hypocritical Coach
Every team in the NHL has open practices. It doesn't seem to bother or slow down the Detroit Red Wings, San Jose Sharks, Chicago Blackhawks, Washington Capitals or Pittsburgh Penguins.
Just the Leafs. Just Wilson.
As far as centring out Phil Kessel for criticism today, again, that is typical Wilson. Hockey people will tell you his worst tendency as a head coach has always been that when things are good it's about him, and when things are back, it's about them.
Go ahead, dump on Kessel. He probably deserves it. Moreover, he wanted to come to Toronto to be The Guy and get paid like it, so he's going to have to learn that being The Guy isn't always wine and roses.
But Kessel could just as easily fire back and say the team would be much better if the head coach had managed to make the penalty killing something better than absolutely horrific during his entire time with the club.
Could it be that Wilson is completely frustrated that despite his years of experience he has been completely unable to get this Leaf team to improve one iota in more than 120 games?
A better question is probably this: barring significant improvement in this team over the final half of the season, what would possibly motivate GM Brian Burke to bring Wilson back next year?
