Come from behind

Are the new look Leafs for real or are they just teasing the Toronto faithful.

I would like to beleaf that after being told by Cliff Fletcher, Brian Wilson and many Habs fans that this rebilding will take a few years, and then maybe you will see the Leafs win a game over rivals such as the New York Rangers or the New Jersy Devils.

Not to get all worked up about the team Toronto has iced this year. But as a fan I can hope along with many other Toronto fans, that a respectable showing and finish better then what we as fans have endured over past seasons.

So far so good, if they can keep up the forechecking and the scoring, I can see Vesa Toscala keeping the team in many more games, to give his team mates a winning chance.

Toronto`s 5 goals in the third was impressive. On the first of November, the New York Rangers either became confident the Leafs were going to allow them to win this game, or that the game the Leafs were playing was all they had.

Down 2 nothing in the third, the Leafs came back to win the game 5-2. With 2 goals by John Mitchell, and single scores by Jason Blake, Pavel Kubina, and Dominic Moore.
All the goals were scored within 6 minutes.
