Leafs have acquired Jonathan Bernier in exchange for Matt Fratin, Ben Scrivens and a 2nd round pick. So who is # 1 and who is # 2? Or is it 1 A and 1 B?  :)

This is what it has come to....... SportsNet has hired Erin Hawksworth and I am sure she will provide just what they expect. Lots of Pics

The season is only a few games old, but there are some reasons to smile. Given the Leafs current situation I subscribe to the thinking that if they are going to lose (and miss the playoffs) then they may as well lose big and draft really high. I would much rather finish 15th in the East than...

I don't know how many of you have been flipping around center ice and checking out other games, but if you do you will quickly realize that the talent level on the Leafs is vastly inferior to many other teams in the NHL right now. I agree with most forecasts which suggest that the Leafs will...

I am of the belief that the Leafs struggled last year every time there was some kind of opening ceremony. I really hope that tonight they just announce the lineup and drop the puck. Buffalo will be much more of a test than the Habs. Scrivens remains in goal and it looks like the rest of the...

Forwards: Joffrey Lupul - Tyler Bozak - Phil Kessel Clarke MacArthur - Mikhail Grabovski - Nik Kulemin James van Riemsdyk - Nazem Kadri - Leo Komarov David Steckel - Jay McClement - Mike Brown / Colton Orr Defence: Mike Kostka - Dion Phaneuf John-Michael Liles - Mike Komisarek Carl Gunnarsson -...

New season. New Thread. Following an unprecedented flurry of offseason activity, there's a renewed appetite for baseball in the city of Toronto. The Blue Jays made waves in recent months by drastically increasing their payroll and parting ways with some of their top prospects in an effort to...

Although I think my overall level of caring about hockey (and the Leafs in particular) has slipped because of the lockout I am happy that it is almost gameday. Months of talking about lockout, greedy owners/players, CBA, was replaced by shortened training camps, accelerated buyouts, lineup...

For most of the lockout I think I just forgot that the Leafs got this guy. This is a nice write up my Mirtle. But when Toronto Maple Leafs general manager Dave Nonis, then acting as Brian Burke?s right-hand man, sat down with their pro scouts in the summer, the one player they kept coming back...

It seems that the Leafs radio broadcasts are moving from Fan590 to TSN1050. If you live right in Toronto you won't be aware that the range of Fan590 is much greater than TSN1050. If you go north of Toronto at all and try to listen to TSN early in the morning or anytime after 6 PM you get...

@mirtle: Terrible, terrible to hear. RT @NYP_Brooksie: The passing of Dominic Moore's wife, Katie, is such sad news. Condolences She had cancer.

NEW YORK -- The Toronto Maple Leafs are the first NHL team worth $1 billion, according to Forbes magazine. The Leafs, who have not won a Stanley Cup since 1967, are worth $250 million more than the next most valuable franchise, the New York Rangers. The Montreal Canadiens are worth $575...

I could just as easily have started this thread on the main Leafs page, but since there is a lockout I will keep it here. Today during the Marlies game the Sportsnet panel opined that Ranger just might be the best D man on the Leafs if the NHL season were to get going. For those familiar...

Steve Staios, a veteran defenceman of 18 seasons in the National Hockey League, announced his retirement as an active player on Wednesday. The Hamilton, Ontario native played in 1,001 career regular season games and 33 more in the NHL postseason from 1995 to 2012. He has accepted a position with...

I didn't see a thread for this anywhere else..... you never know, there migt be something worth discussing.  ;) When are the opening cermonies? Live and then in Canada?

Sad news to wake up to today. It looks like one man (approx. 24 years old) dressed up like Bane and entered the theatre about an hour into the movie. He dropped two smoke bombs and then opened fire from at least three different guns. The gunman was arrested at the rear of the theatre without...

Eklund is a freak. But I had to click on him in Twitter land to see what Dreger was going on about. Check out a couple of exchanges today that made me laugh. Hockey Buzz Eklund‏@Eklund Ws just told by a VERY good source that JVR may have been the last piece Leafs Needed to Make Run at...

Rick Dudley officially became the Montreal Canadiens assistant general manager on Friday, but on his way out the door the now former director of player personnel for the Toronto Maple Leafs offered encouraging words to their fans: Life is about to get much better. Dudley, 63, is one of the most...

John Shannon@JSportsnet Interesting to note,TML have hired former figure skating star Barb Underhill as the team's new skating instructor. I heard she was working with Schenn already before and gave him some tips to work on for the summer..... who knows....
