So long as the Leafs play a smart game and stay out of the box, they got it in the bag. Detroit looks slow and sloppy in the offensive zone.

Edit: Make that the defensive zone too.

[AceofHarts]

Friggin' Dion Phaneuf too.

dudes friggen lucky as hell. hes tappin Cuthbert.

[Asera]

lol, welcome back White.

Ian White actually became a decent player while playing under Wilson. I was sad to see him go because he was a good work horse of a D man when he is on his game, but sometimes he just isn't physical enough for his size. But I guess when you are competing for top line minutes with guys like Phaneuf, Schenn and Komisarek who are all good D men in their own right, he was expendable.

oh i agree, he has been nothing short of amazing this year, especially for 2 Million, but tonight he has blown it twice.

Holy shit Phaneuf's jaw looks bad. I wonder if thats from the shot or the dozen shattered teeth they probably had to pull.

Still 3-0. Detroit's picking it up a bit though.

Datsyuks line has been the only line to do ANYTHING against Toronto. still, 2 periods left.

oh yeah, its bloody wonderful...like 3 days off, and than back to back...

[Rennadrel]

Toronto has two back to backs this month, one Friday/Saturday and one Monday/Tuesday in the home and home against the Islanders (can anyone say easy 4 points?).

Phaneuf's goal was a 148 Km/h shot.

That Red Wings power play was absolutely terrible, they can't generate much at all. The Leafs are blocking their shots and Gustavsson is playing well enough.

I like how the announcer said "an octopus made it here all the way from Detroit..."

...Detroit is like what, a 4 hour drive from Toronto?

I think it's 6 hours, never made the drive though so I couldn't tell you. With the way I drive, I could make it there in less time then most people :P

[AceofHarts]

jesus, its been like a 5 minute red wing power play.

They couldn't withdraw that goal, it was pretty damn legitimate, but it would have been stupid not to review it since it was a high stick.
