What a complete ass of a schedule. 6 games in 9 nights!? 5 games in 8!?!?! Brutal.
The 8th best team in the conference is on pace for 91 points.
Anyone else feel that the Leafs don't need to make any deadline deals? Our team isn't perfect but I don't see any deadline deal (barring a blockbuster) that will improve them.
Getting Bolland back is similar to a deadline deal trade, we already made trades to get Holland and Gleason and it made us better.

I don't want anything too big to go down. I know guys like Raymond and Franson (ugh, Franson) have been harped on all season, but if our team stood pat I'd be content. Getting back Bolland is definitely like a deadline acquisition anyway. His coming back will be huge.
This team is gelling right now, but if you can get a solid right handed defenseman in a trade for relatively cheap, I'd do it.
Daisy brought up MacDonald, I don't know much about him. Is he a righty? Is he solid defensively?
18 Wheeler right on course
he's the guy playing top 4 minutes on the Islanders. [does it matter if he's a righty? - sorry it's just that seems to be the number one question asked, and I don't know if that really matters. anyway - the Islanders pretty much said they aren't going to sign him, so if we could pry him loose somehow - I'd totally try and do it. but apparently Snow's asking price [which is funny considering that he'd be better off giving MacDonald what he wants], is crazy high
Those 2 red's signify Montreal and Detroit and the 2 blue are Tampa and Torontotwo of them are over the line. hopefully they are in control
You guys should look at the capitals schedule. They easily have the toughest schedule amongst the big pack of teams in the east. The California road trip, home game vs the kings, Bruins 3 times, Flyers twice, Penguins twice, Blues, Blackhawks, Lightning and of course leafs are their toughest games. Safe to say you don't have to worry about them getting in the way of a playoff spot.

7 point cushion on 9th with 22 to go. How many wins do you guys think we will need? I call 16.
Just to throw it out there, Randy said that just because the goalies have been splitting back to backs doesn't mean that that will continue for the entire season. But with that said, the scheduling is so tight that unless the team can somehow limit the shots against on the first night of a back to back, it's very likely that the goalie on the bench will have to start the second game.
