Ronaldo · 10-05-2005, 10:22 PM

8. Toronto

Disclaimer-Being a Canadian, I was forever scarred by the strike so didn't follow what's happened since much. Still my hockey knowledge will surely shine through. These picks are based solely on the lineups as I see them.

*Also done to elicit inane Maple Leaf sob stories from one Evil Chris.

Come on, I can't believe that you have Toronto is the last spot.

I know. It was a tough pick between them and Florida.

I'll go for montreal of course even though Im not so a big fan...

jade12 · 01-19-2006, 03:56 AM

Toronto kicks ass ........ Belfour RULES!! LOL

my ex was a die hard Belfour fan (when he was with ...dare i say it??? the Blackhawks!) ...... and he absolutely hated Toronto ... but now every moment I watch hockey I just relish in the idea that he has to watch his "idol" play in the Leafs uniform lol ......... muwahahahaha LOL

Yes I know I am evil LOL ...... oh and how come nobody picked Chicago for their choices?

Is it because they suck serious ass??? lmao

I think I need sleep now, my humor is becoming more warped by the moment hehehe ;o)

Evil Chris · 01-19-2006, 12:27 PM

Yes many surprises this year so far.
But I really like it that way. I'm very pleased for Carolina.

Leafs aren't doing what I expected and are having a horrible road trip right now.
