Ho hum, a Saturday night without hockey in Toronto. Here are some interesting/random thoughts to consider:
- Now with 8 goals on the season, Phil Kessel has more goals in his 12 games than the Bruins’ highest leading scorer Patrice Bergeron (7 in 25 games played). Wow.
- With Kessel in the lineup, the Leafs are 5-4-3, earning 13 out of a possible 24 points. Without him, they’re 1-7-4. Yikes.
- More on Kessel; For some reason, he seems to love the weekend adrenaline rush. 20 goals and 35 points in 33 Friday, Saturday or Sunday games for Phil last season. This year, he’s got 5 goals and 8 points in 6 weekend affairs.
- The Leafs are dead last in the NHL with a 5.4% shooting percentage, compared to the ridiculous 12.8% of the Colorado Avalanche. Jason Blake’s sniping ‘em at a 2.6% success rate. In other words, he’s going to score every 38.4 shots… Fantastic. Meanwhile, Hagman’s putting them in at an godly 18.6% clip.
- Francois Beauchemin is playing very well of late with 5 points in his last 10 games with a -2 rating, and averaging just a tad under 26 minutes/night during that stretch. Compare that to the 4 points and -7 rating he had after the first 14 games.

@Neverlosehope
He’s made some bad choices thats for sure but he’s not a criminal! Oh shit. Wait! He is!
I think he will be there and will be a factor/non-factor whether we win/lose. If that makes sense?? Not sayin I like him cause I don’t but we could use his abilities for sure and he has earned the position through his play this year.
Dany’s Senior int’l totals 64GP 40G 27A 67Pts 55Pim. Not too shabby.

BTW guys who do you think wins the race for the Calder? I’m feeling back to back goalie wins (How bizarre eh?) I think it is really only a four man race with Rask, Varlamov (My choice since he is amazing AND playing as starter to one of the best teams), Tavares and Van Riemsdyk (If Stevens played this kid more than 13min a game he would have 30 points, he is going to be an absolute beast and better than Carter/Giroux for sure).
