Leafs mesmerized by Red Hot Dogs

The Leafs looked like they were having more fun standing around watching an invigorated Coyotes squad dance around the ice flicking goals into the net at will. They certainly didn’t look interested in improving their home ice record to 5 straight wins and ready a slice of the playoff pie. Let’s not take anything away from the Coyotes. Here’s a team that thumbed its colelctive nose at the rumours and legal meanderings of the NHL and decided to play some pond hockey. Result? Well, they’re climbing up the standings in the west – tied for 6th place right now – 2 points back of 2nd and 5 out of 1st place overall. Hey… the Coyotes are the new Red Wings.

Things don’t get any easier back at Leafs Nation either.

 Two against the Sabres wrapped around a rematch with the Bruins.

The boys best get them there skates a-movin’ lest they find themselves in another rut and have their fragile confidence shaken to the core.

GO LEAFS GO!!!
