I am going to make a prediction. Despite a half-decent line-up, the Leafs will put in most of their concentrated effort to win games during the play-offs, where they will likely be shut out of a berth by a lesser team that has been playing more consistently all year. They will not win the Stanley Cup. And if they do, I will make a porn film.
Jen, are you saying they won't make the playoffs ("be shut out of a berth") or that they will ("win games during the playoffs")? You seem pretty confident, either way. Now about that porn film. I'm thinking it ought to have a hockey theme to it. Possible titles include "Five Minutes, High Dicking"; "Up Your Five-Hole"; "Miss Conduct's Game"; or the ever-popular "Puck Me".
They will NOT get into the playoffs. The last 20 games or so will be the only time they work hard enough to earn a spot, and they'll fail. BTW, the porn film is for IF they win the Stanley Cup--which they won't.
I'll be posting in depth on this closer to October 3rd, but for now I'll say you're nuts. The Leafs have markedly improved over last year, when they missed the playoffs by ONE POINT. A healthy team would have made it last year (admittedly, they'd have been first round fodder), but I can't see how Toskala and Blake won't net us at least ten more points between them.

It's Coming...
What, another unsuccesful season followed by mass suicide from the Lead faithful?
:)
That's an "Annualized Readjustment Of Expectations" followed by "Life In A Better Place" to you, pal.
Hey, what can I say? Leaf Nation are the Cubs fans of hockey.
Theres nothing better than watching ESPN Sportscenter and watching NFL anf NHL highlights.
