Go Leafs Go

Hey there blogosphere,

Have you had an opportunity to check out who is leading the NHL in points, goals, wins for a goalie, and shut-outs? Also, did you check the league standings today to see who is winning. You can find it all here:

You'll probably notice that there all Leafs. This year could be the year. Phaneuf is no Wendel, Reimers no Potvin, and Kessel is far, far from being Killer. But, on the other hand, I think the rest of the league is weaker than it's ever been. On the strength of their weakness, this could be the year.

I should also give a quick update on my new favorite Leaf, David Steckel. He's a solid face off man who can kill penalties, but that's not why I like him. He's the man who put out Crosby last year with a blatant blow to the head. Sid is still out. I hope, for his sake, he decides to hang them up. He has a cup, an MVP, a gold medal, the golden goal. It can only go downhill for him. Especially considering my conditioning. As I mentioned on my birthday, I'm in the best shape of my life and I think sometime this year I may crack the marlies line up - if given the opportunity to try out. I'm a Canadian citizen blogosphere, I should have the right to try out for any team I want.
