Jebus... I think the Sabres all got new golf clubs and are eager to give them a spin.

How embarassing. I ended up turning the game off just into the third period. Missed all 3 goals (not like it matters, they still got walloped).

At this point I'd rather watch the special olympics hockey teams play. They'd at least play with heart, give 110% of themselves, and want to be on the ice.

Now all of a sudden we get a chance to get a high pick (Wendel Clark anyone?) because of their s*** ass play all season, and NOW they have to start playing like heroes when they have no pressure.

So we are just destined to finish 9th-10th with their stellar play with the last half month to go, so we get no playoffs, no good pick, just some 20 odd games of awesome hockey, hockey they should have been playing all year. Instead we get 60 games of s***, and 20 games of brilliance.  Leaf fans should feel cheated.

Meh, as good as Stamkos is supposed to be (and from what I've seen of him, its pretty damn good) I'm frankly leery of basing a turnaround to consistent play only on the back of one player. Even Sidney wouldn't be as good without the cast around him to take the pressure off.

Besides, look at the L.A. Kings, they've had decent draft picks for years and they still suck harder than a vacuum cleaner :ph34r: :lol:

Truer words have ever been spoken.
Congratulations to the Montreal Canadiens for being the first team in the East to clinch a playoff spot.
the great thing about being a leaf's fan is that you never waste any of that beautiful spring weather indoors
^^ oh so true Puppet, oh so true.

No, that was this year. :unsure:
I need to be honest here.
I get more pleasure watching the SENS tank than anything else.
These guys are imploding beautifully.

By the way.
I have Golds for tonight. :P
It will either be an incredible night or a VERY disappointing one. The last time I saw the Leafs play the Bruins live, we got blown out 6-0.

Lucky stiff... Unlike the rest of us who use every trick in the book to try and get tickets (My latest attempt is The Fan 590's "Stamkos Sweepstakes" Draw for April 1 tickets against Buffalo at the ACC :P)

Well you had pretty close to deja-vu last night!

Not that I can gloat, we got beat like bitches last night too :(

Wondering if the Leafs/Sabres captains are going over the rosters now to make some foursomes for golf

If you had ANY idea what it is like to root for a team who continues to lose....and badly, you'd begin to see why I get great pleasure in this.
