Mats Sundin Hart Trophy Winner 2006-07. You heard it here first!!!

Holy crap, the Flames won a hockey game! Great first period, crappy second, but looked much better in the 3rd. All I can say is thank god for Iggy and Kipper. All we need now is to string a few wins together and everything will be fine. Please god, let the slump be over!

Man, I don't know about that. The Flames looked really weak in the third and the Blues were bringing it. That was a fantastic goal by Iginla to go up 3-2 though. They won because of Kipper, no doubt.

All time records, BUF vs. TOR head-to-head:

Buffalo leads the all-time series 76-50-18; BUF 541 goals for, 409 against

The teams have met once in the playoffs, with the Sabres dominating the Leafs 4 games to 1 in the 1999 Eastern Conference Finals.

In Buffalo (Aud and HSBC), Sabres are 47-20-6 with 299 goals for, 189 against
In Toronto (MLG and ACC), Sabres are 29-30-12 with 242 goals for, 220 against

Sabres' record vs. the Leafs in HSBC Arena (since it opened in 1996): 15-4-3

Rivalry? What rivalry? I can list off about a half dozen teams that I consider to be rivals of the Leafs before Buffalo comes to mind.

Regardless, here's some more fun stats: Toronto 4, Buffalo 1.

Leafs fans were chanting "Overrated". To which I responded "Not Even Rated". Its funny that I dont mind the leafs as a team but I hate their fans.

It's amusing that a regular season win so early in the season is tantamount to a Cup victory for the Leafs' fans, isn't it? Smile Tongue

Anyway....

Opiated, you won't like this but I'm gonna say it anyway- Luongo needs to play better. Many believe he is THE BEST goalie in the NHL. Based on his play so far this season, HE'S NOT. I'm not writing him off by any means but right now he isn't getting the job done. Now, I realize the Canucks have a mediocore team BUT I expected Luongo to steal games for them. So far I haven't seen Luongo steal one game this season. Last night Jose Theodore outplayed him, which is pretty bad if you think about it. My expectations are for Luongo to play GREAT in most games but this season he's played average in as many games as he's played great. For the money he's getting and the reputation as being the best in the NHL, I'm sorry but he's not playing as well as he should. Last night, there was a breakdown in front of him on the winning goal but he totally took himself out of position on the play. Those are the game saving stops a goalie of his caliber are SUPPOSED TO MAKE. He's supposed to play better than GOOD. He's supposed to play GREAT the MAJORITY OF THE TIME. Let's wait and see if he does turn it around because so far this season he's been no better than Auld was last season for the Canucks.

Chanting "overrated" is tantamount to a Cup victory? Uh, OK.

I'm sure a lot of Torontonians are already planning the Cup parade. A win by Toronto over Buffalo means absolutely nothing in November. Let's see it happen in the spring.

Thomas Vanek does it again...1-0 after 1.

Down 3-2 after 2. Lots of penalties being called.

Should be an interesting third!

I am a Leafs fan from Toronto. How the hell are "we" planning a cup parade? God knows, every single game for Toronto could make or break the season. It's a very young team and as Paul Maurice said straight up, "it's going to be a dog fight to make the playoffs".

Before you assume a particular crowd of people on one night, at one place chanting "over-rated" is the entire fanbase of the Toronto Maple Leafs, think about what your saying instead of just lashing out at a team your jealous of.

The leafs have won 5 times in over a decade in buffalo. We owned them in the only playoff series between the 2 teams.(99 ECF) and we are so much better than them this year. Jealousy?

Well, except for the fact that his GAA average and save percentage are both better than Auld's last season......
