I hope I don’t see Burke’s face

Ouch

I wonder how many scotches that fat head put back before this pic was taken?

Ya buddy looks like a raging alcoholic with his rosacea complexion. Probably even drinks on the job.

Leafs are usually crap at the Saddledome. Hopefully that's not the case for this game.

I dunno man, that's not really funny to be honest. He lost a son not too long ago...

This could be painful.

Currently one team climbing one team descending.

Ya that's true. But lets be honest, his face even looked like that before his son passed away.

Leafs don't have Enroth in net, thankfully.

Leafs last 10: 7-2-1
Flames last 10: 6-3-1

Leafs last 5: 2-2-1
Flames last 5: 3-2-0

Come again? Calgary has been the epitome of inconsistency this year, and currently they only really have one scoring line, although it is a scorching hot line.

I haven't been happy with how the Leafs have looked, but they had arguably their best performance of the season on Saturday since the last Washington game, and probably would've won had Andersen been in net.

Burke has always kinda had a blowhard look, but he aged horribly after his time in Toronto. Take a look at pictures of Burke when he first got here in 2008, vs when he was fired in 2013. He looked like a man who had his soul drained, which is not surprising considering he went through a divorce, lost a son and poor results in his line of work.

Tonight's the night Willy, right? Right? Right...

If so, hopefully he gets some rest afterwards. Big game tomorrow night.

Calendar reading skills on point.

TOMORROW night's the night, right Willy?

 

[AppsSyl]

Tonight's the night Willy, right? Right? Right...

Yeah, I think Willy is going to have a big game. Going back to the city where he was born to play may give him some extra incentive, and he is due for a big break out game. Would love to see him score a couple.

 

[Kamiccolo]

Time to see how our over rated forwards do against their underrated, best ever AINEC defense.

 

[PromisedLand]

MNMs been quiet last 2 games, need MNMs to fire and stay hot.

Preferebly 2 of them stay hot while one is in a cold streak and it continues for 82 games.

Preferably all 3 stay hot for the rest of their careers

An ideal situation of course

leafs fans are craycray.

Leafs go on a 7-2-1 run (and outplayed their opponent in all 3 losses) and they're...."descending".

 

[X66]

Leafs are ass tier in Calgary, but at least this game isn't part of a back to back situation.

 

[Torontonian]

7-2-1 but were "descending".. Guess if your not 10-0 in ur last 10 team is a bust

I love western trips. Should be good

Last years western trip was very entertaining...

Kadri in particular really stepped up... That OT goal with McDavid on his back, and then that hit against Sedin in Vancouver...

 

[CanadasTeam]

Hard to assess the outcome of this game, both teams look good on paper.

I love western trips. Should be good

Yes, besides the 9pm starts should be a good match. For some reason i'm quite excited to see game against Edmonton on Thurs.
