Senators VS Leafs (1-3)

The Battle of Ontario resumes tonight when the Leafs and Sens go one on one. The Leafs have sent down Jiri Tlusty and re-called Kris Newbury for this game he will play on a line with Hollweg and Mayers which should be mildly entertaining to watch. The Leafs start Ves Toskala against Martin Gerber.

1st Period: Pretty good 1st period very fast paced a couple questionable calls that should have not been there but what can you do. The Leafs have dried up for sure in the PP department and need to start scoring again. They seemed to be gaining some MO at the end of the period so hopefully they an build on that.

2nd Period: Good job by the Leafs and in particular Dominic Moore to put themselves back in the game. Toskala looks a lot better tonight the 2 days off may have been really what he needed to get his game back. Lots of scrums going on something that hasn't been around the battle of ontario for a longtime. Lets hope for more of the same in the 3rd.

3rd Period: Terrific finish for the Leafs tonight they are now 6-1-1 in the last 8 against the Sens and they are slowly taking over the battle of ontario. Toskala played really well and this should be a big confidence booster for the Finish goaltender lets hope they can carry some MO into the next game.
