Browse more photos » An anonymous comment over at my blog Bitter Leaf Fan raised the question of how exactly the Leafs arrived in their current mess. There’s not a single cause or easy explantion.

Pretty impressive for the ol' bugger, who played almost 21 minutes against the Lightning despite the fact he's off to a pretty slow start this season. That one, however, gives him two in two games after he whacked an empty netter the length of the ice against the Leafs on Tuesday. (And, if you're really bored — or just a huge Nolan fan — you can see all 25 of his tallies from last season.)...

If the team doesn't start playing better, GM Chuck Fletcher is going to start trading away players who will become...

Colorado wins the Stanley Cup! Detroit is the worst team ever! Alexander Ovechkin will score 200+ points! Sweet Jebus, people, grab a pint of Newcastle and take a deep breath. The season’s less than a week old and it seems like everyone’s already making all sorts of weird proclamations about their team and/or players. The most absurd of these things had to be whether Ovechkin would break...
