My last post mentioned Leaf jerseys and lead to some comments from fans with odd jersey choices. One guy had Jason Blake, another was thinking of getting a Jeff Finger jersey, and another had an old Sylvain Lefebvre. Well, I'm pretty sure I can beat that. I mentioned this over at Die Hard Blue and White , but now it's time to tell the Craig Berube story. In 1991, I decided to ask for a new Leafs jersey...

from Larry Brooks of the NY Post, This probably isn’t what’s meant by giving the finger, but the Maple Leafs are already attempting to deal Jeff Finger, the defenseman whom they signed to a four-year, $14M free agent contract this July, we’re told. Finally, for those people who say, “Lou would never do that,” when the possibility is raised of Lamoriello trading for Nikolai Khabibulin in the wake of...

Always a sucker for pain, and $13.75 beers (Hey Jeff Finger doesn't pay himself!) I ventured into the lion's den last night to witness, first hand, the deterioration of this years Senators team. I've made many a trip over the years to the big smoke to see the Senators tangle with the Leafs and more often then not I usually leave unhappy. So to come away from the ACC having witnessed the Senators lose...

Jeff Finger played his first game as a Maple Leaf last night and finally answered those questions about why the team paid such a high price for a 27-year-old blueliner with limited NHL experience.

from TSN, Defenceman Jeff Finger, who has only played one pre-season game, will likely miss the first week of the season as a foot injury is taking longer to heal than originally expected. The 28-year old, who signed a four year deal worth $14 million with the Leafs in the summer, suffered the injury in the Maple Leafs pre-season opening game against the Sabres. read on

A scribe, informed that Jeff Finger was Colorado's hits leader last season, gives the incoming Maple Leaf defenceman a once-over and suggests he's not that imposing, physically, to play such a bang-up version of hockey.

Image courtesy of The Hockey News Since the Senators most recent post season exit there has been no shortage of rumours involving everyones favorite blind, behind the back passing, boy wonder. Unless you can trade Jason Anthony Rocco Spezza for a Stanley Cup Championship or a franchise cornerstone in goalie form, I'm not interested in hearing anymore trade nonsense. For as long as the Senators have...

Here are some of my thoughts on the free agent signings so far. 1. I want to give the finger tor all those who are outraged at the Jeff Finger signing and who have seen him play fewer than two games. Yes, that is pretty much everyone. As a Leaf fan I am [...]

Like me, many people were baffled when Jeff Finger was awarded a hefty raise by the Toronto Maple Leafs, while Kurt Sauer signed with the Coyotes for the very reasonable sum of $1.75M/year. Mainly because Sauer is the better defenseman. Dan Tolensky noticed as well. And he's come up with a rather interesting interesting thesis : maybe Fletcher mistook Finger for Sauer? "A lot of people in Toronto are...
