It's safe to say they will win the cup again.

Just not this year.

Come on ... no one chokes better then Ottawa does

I was at the game last night. Gfs mom's company has season tickets so I got to go.

Leafs played horribly out there. They were slow, defence was horrible, don't think they got a PP shot on net, they had way to many penalties! They were 5-on-3 like 2 or 3 times in the game. They also got a 5 minute major in there somewhere as well.

Now I absolutely am not a fan of Raycroft one bit...never have been, but I have to say, that he was probably the best player on the ice. Out of the 4 goals (at least 3 were on the powerplay), none were his fault. Defence was hooooorrrible, with a capital R! I was actaully impressed w/ Raycroft. I can see him being a great goalie (Stanley Cup caliber? don't know about that)...

But Maurice has A LOT of work to do w/ the team. Eventhough it's the first pre-season game, Buffalo was way ahead of Toronto. We need some speed! okay...i'm done.

I still have faith...I just want playoffs!

I know. StereoP is an Ottawa fan.

Its only the first game.

Really, i knew they would get whipped out there last night. You have the Sabres, a team that has been bred for the new NHL, a team that has had their system down cold for over a year now, playing against a leaf team that has a new coach, hasnt worked on much in terms of PK, PP, 5 on 5 strategy, etc. Heck, the coach still doesnt even know line combos.

I think the last 2 or 3 games of the preseason will say more about the leafs. Actually, it will take them a good part of the regular season to get where they need to be as a team.
