As a 17th birthday present, Mr. Bone will be taking me to the Leafs game tomorrow where the Boston Bruins are in town. The Leafs will be facing a division rival which they have had trouble beating in recent games.
It appears as though Vesa Toskala will get the start again tomorrow. With the Leafs going through a struggling season Toskala is one of the few players as emerged as one of the few that you can count on to "give 'er shit" every time he plays, and has been very solid for the better part of the season.
With back-to-back losses against Buffalo and the New York Islanders, the Leafs now sit in last place in the Eastern Conference, and with the trade deadline just 11 days away this Leaf team could be looking a lot different come February 26th, the day of the trade deadline.
When Mr. Bone presented me with the tickets I was a little down because last year Boston was the most boring team to watch in the NHL, but this year they have been a little bit more exciting. They went from being as fun to watch as getting your wisdom teeth out to now only as boring to watch as waiting for water to boil. Nevertheless, the ACC is always a great atmosphere and it should be a great night. I'm hoping I can get my Rbk jersey signed by a few of the players.
