5 Minutes and 21 Seconds...

Wowwie Wowwie... Leafs are turning out to be quite the force these days. Who would have thought that after putting up 5 goals against a future hall of famer, Martin Brodeur, they could have it in them again. Down 2-0 for most of the game against the Rangers, in five minutes and twenty one seconds, the Leafs storm back in the third with 5 unanswered goals to take the win. But not too many people saw that one coming.

Kudos to Mitchell on his debut in the NHL to get two goals and an assist. Definitely a night to remember for him. Leafs started shooting again too with 17 shots in the third period alone totalling 35. I guess Ron Wilson is finally getting through to the guys... It's like the youngsters are sponges and you gotta make them accept the system and suck it all in. Only two penalties on the night too, leading to success.

Not too much time to celebrate though as the Leafs have their next game in under 24 hours in Carolina for a 5pm start. Let's see if the momentum continues through. Watch it on Leafs TV.
I love the feel you get from Torontonians, I thought the Leafs would do better than expectations, mind you, the expectations were really really low. Four wins in the last five games with the loss against the Lightning as the one I thought we'd pull through with.

Little statistics for you:

Leafs first 6 games - 11 GF vs. 20 GA
Leafs last 5 games - 21 GF vs. 14 GA

Leafs first 5 games - 78 Penalty Minutes
Leafs last 6 games - 47 Penalty Minutes

Correlation?
