[Leafs PWN]

Wow Detroit has 7 OT losses already. That's 1/3 of their games .

Megatron is a beast like no other. He might be the best athlete on the planet after Lebron James (in terms of overall athletic ability).

Overall, a decent game last night. The first and mid 3rd was good defensively, the rest was not. Johnny boy made some good saves, the best of which came on an Islanders PP. That team does not know how to PK. They put no pressure on the point men or the forwards around the dot, leaving them with ample space and time to shoot or make a play. Kessel scored one of his goals from there on the PP, and set up some really nice passes, which trigger-shy Franson wasted.

Being out shot is the norm now. Thank god we have two good goalies - facing 30+ shots every night for one tendy would be extremely stressful. Although, the number of scoring chances we are giving up is in the middle of the pack.

Kadri and possibly Bozak comes back Thursday night. It's amazing how we've managed to stay in the top 3/4 when 3 of our top centers have been gone for a week, and 2 have been gone for 2+ weeks now. Trevor Smith, an AHLer, has done an excellent job of filling in with 6 pts in 12 games.

Peter Holland (Center) has been very impressive for us so far. The big man crashes the net on a regular basis, wins about 60% of his faceoffs, and knows who to dish the puck to on his line. If he continues to develop, he could be the perfect fit between Kessel and JVR in the long run. He was taken 15th OV in Kadri's draft, and scored at PPG pace in the AHL. Excellent low buy at the right time by Nonis.
