woohoo. Aubin has a great game, as do Sundin, Tucker and wellwood - which is a proposed power play line. Wellwood has earned his spot.
Looks like Mr. Raycroft has had the worst game of the three goalies this past week. Maurice has said he wants to give each goalie (Aubin, Tellqvist and Raycroft) the same number of pre season games, give them a chance to show themselves. Although raycroft has already been guaranteed the top spot.
Pogge is definietly going down to the Marlies because maurice thinks he is still young, but he has been told he too will get a preseason big league game before he goes.
Defence line is down - Kaberle, Colaiacovo, belak, Kubina all out - and last night Stefan Kronwall left and did not return - he's got one of those lower body injuries.
Lets the younger boys - Wozniewski, Harrison, White, Bell - play, anyway.
Canadiens played two goalies - Yann Danis and Jaroslav Halak - trying to figure out who is good enough to sit second seat to Huet.

Time to bring back that old ditty...

Sudin to Wellwood to Tucker

These are the sweetest of possible words:
"Sundin to Wellwood to Tucker"
Trio of blue Leafs who skate like the wind,
"Sundin to Wellwood to Tucker"
Effortlessly passing the puck away on the double,
Causing the NHL nothing but trouble,
Playing their hearts out for a team on the bubble,
"Sundin to Wellwood to Tucker"

Here you go...


Stanley Cup Contenders

Take to the ice,
Like teams of lost lore,
And bring back the Cup,
To Toronto once more,


Such fabled a history,
In need of repair,
For the city has lived,
Through years of despair,


Dig deep now dear lads,
And play through the pain,
For the glory of hoisting,
The grand prize of the game,


This year let it be known,
That the Leafs are Contenders,
And not just another one,
…of countless Pretenders.
