Montreal playing well right now. They have a nice group of talented young players.

Just when I thought a team couldn't make itself more unlikeable, they hire Tortorella.

They really are the worst.

Gudas has been injured the last couple of games, but it sounds like he will play tonight in Toronto. Says he wants to address this himself. So, who will step up from the Leaf's. Or, will they bring someone up from the Marlies.

Max Domi is the only one on the Leafs who naturally has it in him to go after Gudas. Maybe Dakota Joshua. I don't want to see a Easton Cowan-type of bear hug attempt, its gotta be a drop the gloves and pound this guy out. Other than Domi, who can drop the gloves and get any amount of retribution, I can't think of anyone else, and THAT's the problem with the Leafs. No backbone, they're a bunch of choir boys. And rather than 1 fight, I'd rather see the Leafs come out and physically pound the Ducks out all game, but we all know that ain't happening, Nylander's too busy blowing kisses to the crowd!!

Domi fights Gudas, who really didn't appear to try to throw a punch, at the drop of the initial faceoff

Leafs just earlier fired their GM, Treliving

I said it would be domi, it had to be, he's the only one who has a pair on the leafs roster.

Treliving should have been fired a month ago, he's been terrible, he wasn't any good in calgary I m really not sure how he got the leafs GM job.

Time to re vamp the leafs roster, bye bye Willie !!!

I'm most interested in what happens to the Canucks - a pretty sorry excuse for a professional hockey team right now.

- questionable management
- ditto ownership
- ditto coaching
- high-paying contracts
- last place in the league
- 11.6 Million cap hit on a player (Petterson) who scored 15 goals

Rumours Petterson will possibly be traded to the Hurricanes however the Canucks need to do something major to stop the bleeding. Lack luster play and questions top to bottom indicate major changes should be coming.

No doubt changes coming...Peterson has been the kiss of death for them. I can't see anyone taking on that contract with the lack of production that comes with it
