I almost forgot there's a game tonight ... the leafs' busy schedule begins with 3 games in next 4 days, and this is the last road game before they come home to ACC tomorrow night.
The Leafs nearly escaped losing 4 in a row, thanks to some puck luck and suspect goaltending by Boston. I hope that relieves some pressure off the team because honestly, despite the win, we DIDN'T play a good game in Boston.
My biggest concern is Andersen, who has looked pretty darn shakey since the all-star break. Every goalie is allowed to have bad stretches, but the good ones stop the slide and it's about time you do it, Mr. Andersen.
Babs said Alexey M (Sorry, can't spell his last name yet) won't get into the lineup tonight, and it seems like we'll see the deadly Hunlak combo tonight again.
There's a rather short list of players who has been playing well for us since the ASG, but I think Nylander tops that short list.
The Leafs have a pretty packed schedule, and some pretty tough opponents coming up over the next 10 games. The next 2.5 weeks will probably go a long way in determining whether this is a playoff team or not this year.
A win tonight will sure help. Go Leafs Go!!!
