the team is going further into the depths of Hell.
Thems the facts, jack! <--- I think some not so wise person said something to this effect before.

WHERE HAVE THINGS GONE RIGHT???
With over half the season under their belt, it is painfully apparent that even the areas where GM Brian Burke thought his team was improved have failed miserably.
"If the security at Air Canada Centre can remove a fan for throwing waffles on the ice during a game, what should fans do when Brian Burke and Ron Wilson keep putting garbage on the ice every night?"
Dion Phaneuf: Void of Impact
This season has been void of any inspirational quotes from Phaneuf and his on-ice performance has been mediocre at best
it is very hard to quantify what he does on the ice that is making an impact on the team's performance.
Case in point, on a team that is desperate for goals, Phaneuf has managed just one goal on the season, a feat he accomplished on December 14thagainst the Edmonton Oilers.
Phaneuf’s eight points in 28 games equates to a paltry 0.28 points per game, a far cry from the 0.40 points per game he was averaging with the Flames prior to joining the Buds. It's an even bigger gap when you consider his career high of 60 points in 82 games with the Flames during the 2007-2008 campaign, which equates to 0.69 points per game.
The reality is, through 54 games with the Maple Leafs, Phaneuf has just three goals and a total of 18 points. That equates to 0.33 points per game, which just isn’t good enough for a player that carries a cap hit of $6.5 million.
Worse yet, for a player that averages 3:30 of power-play time per game, Phaneuf has yet to score a power-play marker, and has no goals and just four assists on the PP this season.
