Luca Caputi – Tuesday Prospect Report
Everyone should know Bloge Salming and his extraordinary ability at visual arts.
His skits are over the top funny and when in collaboration with Down Goes Brown, the comedy has resonance beyond video.
They’re not only funny, but legendary. True comedic (and patriotic) genius.
I was proud to add a prospect scouting report to his creative visuals for [...]

Although the Maple Leafs did not dip into the trade waters just yet, there were a couple events of importance that may determine how the next two days will shake out:
- Alexei Ponikarovsky left practice with a knee injury but did later return to finish it, albeit gingerly. Nearing its conclusion, he did head into [...]
Trade Deadline Notes
The Toronto Star provides us with a couple interesting tidbits about potential trade talks leading up to the deadline:
- Ponikarovsky continues to be heavily linked to Pittsburgh. Previously, we learned from CBC’s Hotstove that one team had offered the Leafs a 2nd round draft pick along with a prospect, which clearly was not enough for [...]
Aulie Out For The Season
Per Darren Dreger (TSN):
