if toronto wins 3 of 4 from now on the chances of making the playoffs is pretty goodHave they been mathematically eliminated from the playoffs, if so, they will win 3 of 4, if not, best they will do is go 2-2 .

I am most happy with the fact that Boston wont be getting another high pick. Screw the bruins. And if leafs do make the play off you never know they might make a good run you know. Montreal last year made a decent run and they had finished 8th.Who cares if they make the playoffs ? other than the fact that Boston will get a lesser draft pick as a result, they won't go anywhere if they do make it.
Check with Brian Burke, do you know his Terb handle ?Are the Leafs planning to bring Kadri back up again this year?
His TERB handle is "gcostanza". Hee, hee, hee. Insert "Brian Burke" smilie here.Check with Brian Burke, do you know his Terb handle ?
I remember it, Buffalo had played here that evening, he was on his way back and went off the road and crashed in his Pantera.To-day is a sad anniversary in Leaf history. Tim Horton passed away in a car crash.
He hadn't slept much & was on pain killers. He liked to drive fast & likely fell asleep at the wheel.I remember it, Buffalo had played here that evening, he was on his way back and went off the road and crashed in his Pantera.
They had no reason to start Reimer in October. Most people didn't even know who Reimer was. Many probably would have thought someone with that name was a male porn star.If they started using Reimer in October instead of January, they'd be in a playoff slot right now.
Nazem Kadri will not be back with the Leafs this season & that's a good thing. If you look at what Montreal did with Max Paccioretti, sending & keeping Kadri in the minors is the best thing that could happen for him. He needs to work on some things & gain some confidence in the minors before getting full-time duty with the big team. Last season, Paccioretti was a lost soul out there on the ice. Then sent him down, there were complaints by many in the media about this, but after being called-up this season, he's a monster. Patience is a virtue.Are the Leafs planning to bring Kadri back up again this year?
Even if they do get into the playoffs, the odds in favor of them advancing are very slim. Sure, it would be nice for a change. However, Burke is doing the right thing by dumping excess bodies in return for young prospects & draft picks. No more sacrificing the future with this team.Leafs are now 6 points out of a playoff spot. They would need 17 more wins out of the 24 games remaining to get to 90 points which should be enough to get into the playoffs.

By the way, didn't Phil Kessel look great last night? He's been unbelievable over the past 5 games. Anyone who thinks Tyler Seguin will be a better player than Phil Kessel needs to be lobotomized!
