Becoming Less-Rare Preview

So far I haven't been able to find any particular VOODOO that will sink the Leafs tonight. The "Florida Panthers not having come back from a 3 goal deficit" VOODOO worked great for them on Tuesday. I think if we are looking for baby-steps, we can watch for the Leafs to put together a 55 minute effort tonight. They will have to do it without Jeremy Williams, the recent healthy scratch against Florida and Montreal. Ron Wilson had this to say about him when asked why Williams was down to the farm and on waivers: "There are still holes in his game, a lack of consistency," Leafs coach Ron Wilson said. "Until a player shows that kind of consistency on both side of the puck, you have to learn your craft in the minors, it's as simple as that. If (he clears waivers), he will help the Marlies and he will help himself." So long Jeremy, say hi to Staffan Kronwall!

The Sun also mentions moving Hagman
off of the Moore-Blake line(scoring making you uneasy Brian?) so that he can spark Kulemin and Grabovski. Good luck with that.......

The last thing I'd like to mention today is the play of Kulemin
. Not sure why Wilson always seems to think that he needs a "push". The kid is a great forechecker, and unless he is a complete douche behind the scenes, will be rounding out to have a fantastic 2nd line career with decent numbers. Keep giving him 12 to 16 minutes a night and watch him get 20 goals this year. You heard it here first.......
