Need to win this. Important game for many reasons.
We haven't beat Vancouver in 10 years, and this is the season to get the monkey off our backs. We broke the drought against Phoenix, finally beat Chicago, won a game in Calgary, and other streaks that the team hasn't really had before. Let's add another one to the list.
Right now, the Leafs are on the upswing, while Vancouver is in no man's land and needs a serious re-haul. They've lost their last six, and things are looking pretty bleak with Henrik out as well. This game could go a long way in building that confidence to be a legit playoff team. Don't take Vancouver lightly, and just hammer them through and through. Forget keeping it a close game, go for the blowout, and stick the dagger in deep.
It's been 10 years too long, just end the drought already. Now is the best chance they've had in years, it's a prime opportunity.
Would love to shut up the Casuck fans too, they're crying about their team right now but they still want to win this one real bad, some fans were even saying "Just beat the leafs it's all I care about, even if we tank the rest of the season". Don't give them that satisfaction, please! Continue their misery, destroy them. Would love to rock these chumps and go into the break on a high note.
