Rumor is he's playing injured. Why, I have no idea.

I remember the taped wrist thing. He's scored a bunch of goals since then, just not over the last 6 games. Then again, he doesn't seem to be getting off his shot like he usually does.

Why is Gardiner shooting the puck right into the goalies chest. When there isn't a screen in front of the net the shot should be along the ice because there is likely to be a rebound this way and people wonder why Gardiner get's benched, he can't play defence and has lost his offensive touch.

LOL anyone who has played hockey or football at a high level will tell you that having a taped up wrist does not imply an injury, let alone a severe one. Kessel looks like he has his taped up in such a way as to brace his inner wrist. Worst case scenario is he likely has mild tendonitis. The fact that he's had it for a month or so though likely means that he has it taped up for precautionary reasons. Definitely not an excuse for the guy to be playing poorly.

It's an excuse for his shot being off, but not for the rest.

south of Steeles
hmmm

First year of Kessels contract in Toronto: LOSERS
Second year of Kessels contract in Toronto: LOSERS
Third year of Kessels contract in Toronto: LOSERS
Fourth year of Kessels contract in Toronto: LOSERS
Fifth year of Kessels contract in Toronto: LOSERS
Sixth ...

This already happened - do you really need another 8 years ?
Which proves nothing. Not that I'm directly comparing them as players, but the Pens missed the playoffs in Lemieux's first four years, and it was much harder to miss back then.

Leafs have got to be the worst team in the league with the goalie pulled.

What's sad is Florida is playing awful hockey too. It's like the Leafs hit an force field that has nothing to do with the Panthers players and play comes back their way.

Can we fire Carlyle now or do we have to go through more embarrassment
