Toronto Maple Leaf News and Rumors
Roberts will be in Toronto, either way
According to thefourthperiod.com, Florida Panthers winger Gary Roberts plans to be in Toronto next season, whether or not the team trades him.

Numbers on Toronto
after 2 big signings, the leafs may not have eough cap room, to improve their offence.
So what's next for JFJ
Last year, I was not upset at any Leafs moves (except maybe not buying out Belfour). Frankly, it was a transition year, and I knew it would be painful. JFJ went out there and took some risks to try to ice a competitive team. For the most part he succeeded.

Note: I nearly died of a stroke when I read the article in question.
Pohl hits the Net!
