He plans to retire in Toronto and is having a massive renovation done to his King City residence. The project manager for the job is none other than former Leaf great Wendel Clark.”

That’s insane!

you know, i understand the fact that the leafs have an option with Belfour and could go with him (and see him rack up his 500th win perhaps), but if Eddie doesn’t play that well down the stretch – why not bring Cujo back and try and sign Eddie to becoming a goaltending coach for the Leafs and Marlies (and pay him loads of money too). that way, Cujo is the perfect transition goalie, you can give him about 50 games next year, Telly 30 games and see where that goes.

good article in the star on cujo:

http://www.torontosun.com/Sports/Hockey/2006/01/12/1390394-sun.html

i agree that the leafs have no defensive depth – but his analysis of the western road trip and his failure to analyze the ample depth on the leafs’ forward lines tells you a lot about how little he has watched the leafs this year.

i think they should go out and get a veteran goalie who will play back-up to Telly but could also be capable of playing in a #1 role as well (just in case Telly doesn’t work out). someone like Burke or (gulps) Thibault.

And In maybe a year or two Pogge will start and Rask will back up, then a year or so later Rask will take over as the starter.

give carlo the playing time – that’s what i say. come playoff time the opposition won’t simply be worrying about just McCabe and Kaberle but they’ll have to worry about the two-way threat that Coliacovo poses.

The hits just keep on coming for this kid. I think there will be many many more in his career. A big hitting presence is something that definately was missing from the Leafs blueline so it’s good to see Carlo step up.
