Maple Leafs at NY Rangers 10/12/09

Can the Leafs finally win one game? I hope they can pull it off tonight. Toskala will be getting the start though. It will be tough going up against Lundqvist, who is going to be back in net after getting a day off yesterday.

As of right now I'm going to assume that Toronto dresses the same lineup as they did against the Penguins. Which means Orr and Brashear should go. Might be hard for Rosie to find a dance partner with Voros being a possible scratch again with the return of Avery (who could stir things up).

Anyways, I don't expect there to be too much action tonight, I just hope the Leafs can get a win.

My two current favorite teams going at it. Should be a good game and I think the Leafs will force the Rags to play a physical game. Orr vs Brash will definitely happen and I'm sure we'll see plenty more. Rosehill would kill Voros

I miss Orr and that awesome smile he has after each fight. He is a guyy who enjoys his job. Unlike half the heavies in this league who think there goal scorers and forget what there real job is. Im jealous of you Leafsfan


ps you better get codmw2...me you and goat...team tac

Unfortunately for Leaf fans Burke has built a tough hockey team, but one that will be in contention for the first pick in the 2010 draft.

Toskala, with the 48th best GAA, needs to get spanked again, so Joey Mac can take over.

I know it's early, but they just can't keep riding this sieve as the losses add up. He makes Raycroft look like a prime Luongo.

But should be a good game.

Lines Updates

Official forward lines for tonight:

Leafs:

Nik Kulemin-Mikhail Grabovski-Nik Hagman
Alex Ponikarovsky-Rickard Wallin-Lee Stempniak
Jason Blake-Matt Stajan-Jamal Mayers
Jay Rosehill-John Mitchell-Colton Orr


Rangers:

Marian Gaborik-Brandon Dubinsky-Vaclav Prospal
Ryan Callahan-Chris Drury-Chris Higgins
Sean Avery-Artem Anisimov-Enver Lisin
Donald Brashear-Brian Boyle-Ales Kotalik

So no Voros, which kinda sucks. Still don't know who will be officially in on the Leafs D yet though. I'm hoping Exelby over Finger.

Yep, according to thestar.ca's official lines. Avery should be able to stir thing's up nicely. I just wish Voros was on the 4th as well. Someone for Rosehill to bang up.

Orr struggles against bigger lefties, so Brashear is going to be a tough challenge for him.
I'm sure Rosehill will find a dance partner somehow. Maybe he can tango Toskala's ass to the bench after he gets pulled in the first period.

He's done well against Brash before?
