Hit the bricks, loser. According to Sportsnet, which is a mainstream media organization with strict editorial standards and would therefore not be wrong about something like this, the Maple Leafs have fired Carlton the Bear . (Update: Carlton himself denies it .) And while this news may come as a shock to some, sources tell me it's actually been in the making for some time. In fact, Carlton's employee...

from Steve Simmons of the Toronto Sun, When it was suggested that Jason Blake doesn’t exactly pay his own way with his meagre goal-scoring numbers and that he would be a candidate to be sent packing, Burke said: “Does anyone on this team work harder than Jason Blake? There has to be an element of fairness in this.” That is the difficulty Burke finds himself in. Some of this terrible...

Saturday night's game didn't quite go they way hockey fans were expecting. With Alexander Ovechkin and the Caps in town to play the last-place Leafs, a blowout seemed inevitable. When it was announced that struggling Vesa Toskala would start for Toronto, even the most die-hard Leaf fans was expecting the Caps to hit double digits. It didn't happen. Instead, Ovechkin managed a goal but was largely...

RIP - Vesa Toskala's Stint as a Leaf Coach Ron Wilson - "When you get solid goaltending it certainly helps" Jason Blake- "He's made some saves that I call game-changers. Right at the key times and they've been outstanding. Last night and tonight, he was the difference. It was good to see." Phil Kessel - "Gustavsson in net tonight again - it's unbelievable. He played outstanding...

In case you need some instructions, I present to you the following step by step graphic. Jason Blake 's screen saver. (via www.guidofistpump.com ) The Leafs play the Hurricanes tonight.

The first, a comparison of Jeff Finger...

They also probably need a better winger than Jason Blake on that line but that's a Question of the Day for another day. Today's question: what should the Leafs do at centre? Stay the course: Tyler Bozak and Nazem Kadri are in the...

The Barilkosphere is buzzing with talk of Phil. For the first time since Kessel became a Leaf, everytime his name was mentioned, it was not instantly followed with "for two first round picks and a second." No, when Kessticle came to the fore, it was followed or preceded by words like "wow" or "amazing" or "super fly." OK, maybe not super fly. But you'd be hard...
