Leafs VS Hurricanes (4-6)

Should be a very fast game tonight the Leafs are going with Curtis Joseph and the Canes will counter with Leighton. Look for the Leafs to come out strong with a lot of momentom stemming from last nights games.

1st Period: Wow welcome back Ian White a goal on his 2nd shift of the game and its 1-0 Leafs. If Fletcher is shopping him he is doing himself a favor to be moved by playing that well. Dominic Moore is so dominant with puck when he wants to be and that is something that the Leafs have needed since the Gary Roberts days. Joseph looks solid all around a good 1st.

2nd Period: Wow a 3-1 lead and they blew it something I thought they would have stopped has come back to rear its ugly head. Of course the Refs are really quick to blow whistles ESPECIALLY that blown call on Coliacovo WHO DID NOT CLOSE HIS HAND! Curtis seems to be going down a little early something that really used to bug me about him. I think the Leafs will be ok and come out strong in the 3rd. They seem to put there best effort forward in situations where there down.

3rd Period: Terrible 3rd by the Leafs and WHAT a dumb penalty by Antropov to take with less than a minute left. The Leafs lost this game because of penalty trouble in the 2nd period and they showed how much trouble they were in when they blew a 3-1 lead. The Leafs didn't get much help from Cujo either as he had a less than stellar performance against the Canes tonight. Look for Toskala on Tuesday when the Leafs will play the Canes again in Toronto.
