2. What the kind of wimpy team names themselves after a leaf?
3. Shouldn't said wimps be called the "leaves" and not the "leafs"?
The Toronto Maple Leafs are named after the heroic "Maple Leaf Regiment" of the Canadian Expiditionary Force in the First Great War. Individual members of the Maple Leaf Regiment were nicknamed "Maple Leaf" by their commrades and "Maple Leafs" plural. So, who would name themselves Maple Leafs as opposed to Maple Leaves... IN' WAR HEROS! Learn some damned history.

didnt know that. Never busted on the mascot...just thought it was a leaf. A team I played against in highschool were the acorns, so I thought....why not a leaf too?

my brothers company get dirt cheap front few rows tickets for the oilers games so hopefully will catch one of them if my visit goes to plan.
the caps should easily win their division this year.
the flames...i think they will finish either 8th or miss the playoffs.

elfreak - were you talking about scott steven's hit on paul kariya in game 6 (i think) during the 03 finals? i'll never forget seeing him laid out on the ice like that...looked like he was dead for a moment
that was a great one, but it is not it. It was a european player that got laid out. The stevens hit on Lindros was lol.
The new scott stevens name is mike komisarek. ;)
