Do you think he had anything to do with the latest trade?   Can you say "tampering"?

I hope you saw me with him on TSN at 8 this evening. ;D ;D

Actually I was seen in the clip filming him, "Man With A Camera". ;D ;D

See it again at 11 tonight on SportsCentre.

It is going to be a lot of fun watching Burke crumble like the rest who have ventured to the center of the universe !!! Burke can only win if he joins a winning team , all he will do is continue the losing ways which will always curse the Have Nots !! like I said it will be fun to watch !!  ;D ;D ;D

It's onlly one game Chris.  ;D ;D Teams usually do well in the first game after a coaching or GM change, then they revert back to their bumbling selves. If you don't believe me check out how Tampa Bay is doing after they fired their coach. Just wait and see.

Now its two wins for us. ;D ;D One team going up now and another one slipping to the bottom. ;D ;D ;D

Two wins and the Leaf fans are once again planning their annual parade. Only problem is that the floats haven't moved from their parking spaces since 1967 ;D

I have been saving my money for the trip. The interest I have accumulated since 1967 is running into the thousands now. ;D ;D ;D

Money won't matter when the end of the world comes  ;D  GO SENS GO  :D

By the way the canucks put on a pitiful effort last night, but I must say, Mason (I think that was the gaolies name) is very good, especially robbing Wellwood like that  ;)
Maybe the Sens and Canucks should look into getting a new GM to turn us all around  ;D

Getting their butts kicked tonight. Its 4-1 Sharks. Toskala is stinking it up 4 goals against on 19 shots. I think I hear Mojo jumping off the bandwagon as I type this. Your the last one left ;)

I'm sure Burke is working to get Toronto referees doing the Leafs game.

Leafs are horrible, at least Ottawa is only losing by either one goal or in OT. The whole league got better this year it seems, that is except for Ottawa and Toronto  ;D
I beleive it is 5-1 now. Maybe they should be smart and play CuJo more instead of Toskala, or maybe just put a cardboard goalie in the net  ;D

First off I already told TO what they need to do about their goaltending woes. A pylon. Thats right a pylon. You can get them at the dollar store. Thats right $1 for a pylon. That $1 is a better investment than a $4 million siv ( Toskala )

Final score 5-2 Sharks. Leafs stink!!  ;D

Keep losing and we'll continue laughing and talking about the greatest team that never was. That should keep you even warmer and fuzzier inside. :D ;D

Hopefully Burkie keeps the Laughs just competitive enough that they miss out on the big 2 in this years draft.

you see...you really don't understand the game of hockey...Fletcher built this team to compete every game...but rarely win...its all about rebuilding......I believe the Leafs have 0 stars...a team without an elite player often stumbles thru a season...we'll go thru more growing pains...but soon enuff we'll contend...mebbe even win the holy grail...the Cannots...they'll rely on the sista's 'n Lou....who collectively have done 0 for the Cannots as far as contending goes.. ;D

Ottawa is climbing the ranks  ;D  They arn't last anymore!  :D

Just wait till the Canucks get Sundin, then they'll have taken the Leafs 2 best players from them  ;D

We dont want or need Sundin. We just need Luongo back. He brings the team chemistry and leadership, not to mention great goaltending.
