Leafs are the weirdest freaking team in the NHL, I want no part of them. They came within minutes of making it to the Stanley Cup final last year. Yes, they would have made it to the finals if they beat the Bruins. This city would have been unbearable.
Teuvo Teravainen could see time in the Blackhawks' lineup before the end of the season.

More offense. Just what the Hawks need.
And I love this part of the article:
ov
"Teravainen has been penciled in as the Hawks' No. 2 center for the 2014-15 season and could get a look there down the stretch of '13-14. The spot is currently held my veteran Michal Handzus."
So a guy drafted much lower than 27, who hasn't even played yet in the NHL, is apparently ready for top 6 duty at center on one of the league's best, while our guy, no. 3 overall on a truly mediocre team that has trouble scoring, futzes away on the wing . . . Nice.

So I guess we were an ot goal from cup win in 2011? I understand your fear, I had in 2011 when I hated getting up in am on game days as office was full of smiling whales. Still when we beat Leafs you will ve untouchable for years.
Not the same thing at all, we were not even close to beating the Flyers in that series. Vastly outplayed.
I think he means the OT loss in the first round we had with Boston a few years ago. Boston went on to win the cup that year.
Wrong year. Think about what you wrote originally and my response. You will figure it out.
Let's put the emotions aside, bottom line, our defense is mostly too slow for the Leafs forwards. Heck we don't even out shoot that team by a wide margin, almost every other team in the league does.
You are avoiding. You stated that the Leafs would have made Finals if they beat Bruins. We lost to them in ot in 2011 so using your logic we would have gone to Finals and won cup too.
It is way too slow.
It is way too slow.
Yet you pimped for Murray. Seulement dit
