I am not 100% sold yet. Nor do I think this Washington team is as weak as they seen. If Hunter turns it around and can motivate Ovie then just like that Washington is a threat for the cup. An Aging Tim Thomas is what scares me for Boston not to mention I really don't like his style. It really pains me to watch him. Its like he is CONSTANTLY out of position flopping around but he always makes the damn save. I mean hes like watching a seal with goalie pads some times. BUT HE STOPS THE PUCK! I don't know. My prediction, Nashville pulls off some move at trade deadline picking up someone like Alex Semin, Bobby Ryan, Zack Parise, etc and tries to make a run at it. With the way the West has been they could very well end up in the cup finals too with that type of fire power up front.

I remember during the Pat Quinn years, we actually thrived during the tough part of the schedule. I'd be like, bring it on!

Seriously, if you're a good team, you can beat anyone and in any building. This is a good test for the Leafs.

Mckegg is averaging over a point per game but is a minus 27, which is a misleading stat since he is playing on the worst team in the CHL.

I thought the same thing was going to happen to Spooner, but he and his team picked it up lately. Unfortunate he got left off though.

Heh. Should be a good couple of games. We've definitely had your guys' number so far, but you guys had ours last year.

I have to say I haven't felt this good about my Bruins, since... ever, really. Everyone is buying in.

Let's see how the leafs do this time against the bruins. last time we played them we were coming off of some pretty weak performances by the devils and the blue jackets, even though we won both, it did not prepare us for the game against the bruins. now we are coming off of some more games where we say poor performances by the caps, lightning and ducks, which i guarantee will not prepare us against the bruins once again, hopefully the game against the stars did. Not sure if we will win any of the two games but i am confident we won't get blown away 6-2 or 7-0 in either game.

"… a miracle." I think going 5-4 is pretty realistic. Do you know what miracles are? Miracle runs traditionally are 11-1-0 type runs. Use your head.

8 out of the next 9 are rough…Going 5-4 would be a miracle.
