Here we go again Leaf fans..This year there is a lot of optimism that has been generated among the Leafs Nation...Coming off a very disappointing 2006-2007
season where the Leafs JUST and i mean JUST missed the playoffs, there is a lot to be optimistic for this year. The Leafs led by their young GM John Ferguson JR
made some big off season moves to help this club. Acquring Vesa Toskala not only improved our goaltending situation, it will also give the franchise in a position to
have trading power with 3 solid goalies in the system in Toskala,Raycroft and hot prospect Justin Pogge.
The other major move the Leafs made is adding that elusive big scorer on the top line...It has been said for years Sundin hasnt had a true goal scorer on his wing and Jason Blake might be the guy. I personally believe that Blake is a better fit with the playmaking Kyle Wellwood and it remains to be seen how Coach Paul Maurice will have the lines set up.
The other wildcard is Mark Bel..Bell was a highly touted 1st round pick with Chicago and put up 25 goals a few years ago before the trade to San Jose...After having personal problems off the ice, if Bell gets his act together he will be a major player on this team...
Lets go Leaf Fans..Lets band together and lets do it this year...

Thanks....I actually have a rooting interest for San Jose as my wife is from Fresno California and the closest hockey team there is San Jose...I am usually there once a year and the local Fresno stations cover the Shark games...
I think this year will be a big year for the Sharks..

Why do you spew this hatred towards the Leafs..The Leafs right now are among the top 3-4 teams in the conference..

I woke up this morning and I really feel good about this team....
After realizing what a huge addition Mark Bell will be after serving his suspension, this team might actually compete for the Stanley Cup this year
JFJ has done a great job improving the lineup and now its up to the boys to deliver..
Stay tuned I will have a forecast with predictions on every single Maple Leaf player and how they will do ...
WOW I am so happy to be a Leafs fan...I feel sorry for all that arent.

Yes, Bell coming back from the suspension is sooo much better than him playing 80 games this year!
