Between the Devs, CBJ's, Rangers, Isles, the most wins in the past 10 games is 3. A very sad wild card race to say the least.

Can't say they didn't try, it's like tom brady throwing for 500 but the defence loses the game (in this case the goaltender) , they have no choice but to keep this tempo going, like I said in a previous blogg, they got themselves in this hole....

It’s easy to throw your hands in the air and say, “the goalie stole it”, but that’s not the complete story

Jackets had a lot of shots, for sure. But they lacked the creativity and elite skill that the Leafs displayed on their key goals

Leafs are chock full of high-end talent. And when you have that much high-end talent, you don’t need many opportunities to score

Last night, this was the difference. Jackets took a couple of stupid penalties, too (Anderson and Foligno), which allowed the Leafs PP on the ice

Twice the shots . . . half the goals !! Now if they could only find a sniper !! IMO there is no one on the trade deadline lists who can really help. Jarmo would have to pull an unexpected trade - which I also think will happen this summer.

What is happening with this team? I think they are way stronger than my Devs, as well as Car and Phi. One of the best young D-cores in the league, and Bob is a vezina candidate for sure. I honestly can't make sense of this slump.
