Sabres VS Leafs (4-1)

Curtis Joseph will get his 2nd start in as many games the Maple Leafs have re-called Jiri Tlusty for this one. He will play on a line with Blake and Moore taking Williams spot as he is day to day with a sore shoulder.

1st Period: Pretty good period despite the lack of goals, lots of speed out there something everyone loves to see. Joseph looks good again hopefully he can keep that up. Pretty exciting for Hagman to get a penalty shot to bad he didn't capitalize on it. The Leafs as of right now look like the better team.

2nd Period: Very lackluster effort by the Leafs in that one a goal that should have been stopped and very questionable penalty. Oh well! Still 20 to go maybe we can salvage the game, if not oh well again. Brian Burke needs to make a move something he has yet to do since being named GM and President. I think the Leafs need a scorer and a tough guy. Lets hope for a better 3rd.

3rd Period: Let this be a lesson learned out there for my younger readers who play hockey! A poor effort will always result in a bad game. The Leafs while they outshot the Sabres did play well Joseph was very blah and so was the offense. Lets hope the Leafs can give a better effort Saturday against the Sens.
