serge 904 Posted December 21, 2007 Author Share Posted December 21, 2007 Yeah, and the goal was like a minute after that.... and we're still blaming the stick.it led to the odd man rush, Kubina wasnt able to get off the ice , and yes IT DID lead to the goal..whatever I am not discussing this bullshit anymore Link to post Share on other sites

serge 904 Posted December 21, 2007 Author Share Posted December 21, 2007 I bet you do. The Toronto Maple Leafs is a team that I loveMe and the franchise fit like a gloveThe last two games in Florida have been sadI was really happy now I am really madOur Captain from Sweden will carry us to the promised landHe is an amazing talent and score tons of goal on the backhandWe are suffering some injuries, especially to our stud dmanHe will comeback soon and keep scoring as much as he canThe franchise in Toronto has lots of great historyWe have fans all the way from Alaska to FijiThe blue and white sweater is to be worn proudlyBecause this is the year we will bring home Stanleya poem by a fan Link to post Share on other sites

I cant say, Ive never been a backup in the NHL. (shocking, I know)But some "experts" seem to feel they have to ready, thats their job. Others say "hasn't played in 2 weeks, you cant expect him to be sharp".So Im wondering....is the job of an NHL backup an impossibility? Link to post Share on other sites

Raycroft has been a starter, and last year, a starter with a very heavy workload. You can't expect HIM to play well without seeing action. Think of it like a starting pitcher that becomes a reliever.. it's a different mindset, and it usually takes a while to make the adjustment... Link to post Share on other sites
serge 904 Posted December 27, 2007 Author Share Posted December 27, 2007 I really didnt like the outcome last night...But I dont know what else to say...Its a fine line between winning in OT and losing...Posts, crossbars, breakaways..Either way..Fine line between 4th and 12th in the conference..Its a fine line between a happy win , and a hole in the basement wall..Fine line I tell you....**** , shatz, **** , shettThe universe this morning is still showing signs of globalization on the dubliewicz....Satan and Witt are also into the whole green effect , because a Thursday isnt the same as a Nassau Friday...

Zach6668 513 Posted December 28, 2007 Share Posted December 28, 2007 For some reason I can't find this game on ANY channel tonight.CBC is showing MTL/TAM, which is the strangest thing ever, and my Centre Ice has it blacked out. It's not on LeafsTV or the NHL Network, or TSN or Rogers Sportsnet.Am I the only one? Link to post Share on other sites
