NHL Playoffs: BOS @ NYR

Maple Leafs can make a statement this week
By LANCE HORNBY, QMI Agency


Ex-Maple Leafs greats Dave Keon (left) and Dick Duff wave to the Air Canada Centre crowd during Saturday's pre-game salute to the 1963 Cup champions. Time will tell whether the 72-year-old Keon's No. 14 is one day hanging from the rafters. (DAVE THOMAS/TORONTO SUN)


Former Toronto general manager Bill Watters made a good point on Sunday that the Leafs’ next three games are against teams that finished ahead of the Leafs last year, but currently sit behind them and on the wrong side of the playoff ledger. So it would be something of a statement on the Leafs’ part to get four or more points against the Panthers, Lightning and Sabres before a Saturday night rematch in Ottawa.












Would Patrick Roy make a good coach for the Colorado Avalanche?
  Yes, he's perfect
  No, he's not ready
  Bring him to Montreal!
