It seems, finally, the Leafs have embraced the concept of home ice advantage, picking up a pair of dubs vs scabs and scrubs at ACC. That's fine and dandy, but what about the same type of effort-slash-result away from the snore by the shore? I honestly don't believe the Penguins to be nearly as formidable as most, yet I'm hesitant to think the Leafs can duplicate week one's run in Pittsburgh's new barn. It's an 'I'll believe it when I see it' kind of thing. Actually, that might be a pretty good way to bill this entire season to come, eh?
Oh, and I'd give the start to JSG. He's hot, poised and most likely capable of handling the energy and pressure the Pens are expected to give off.
Alas, Brian Burke lives up to his own hype. And it should be to no offence of Jeff Finger that BB's buried him in the minors. It was time for the boisterous GM to put up. All Finger needs to do is remain shut up and play his game. Yes, it'll be in a lower league, but as one of it's highest priced items. And when's the last time he could boast something like that?
