He said he was returning this week (barring no setbacks, of course)

I'd expect him back by Tuesday for their game against the Pens, and Saturday at the latest.

I don't know, but he certainly would be that beast that gets in the zone and wrecks havok after Kessel bursts in and settles down.

Neat little vid of Burke speaking about more of the behind the scenes stuff as a GM (notably the advantage of the Marlies being in Toronto, the advantages of being with a team like Toronto where money is a plenty despite the salary cap, and the building of the US Olympic team in 2010).

So I guess I might as well make my 1000th one worthwhile - and where else then here.

I can't wait to see them here (Ottawa) on Saturday. Hoping Gardiner gets to dress since seeing him on TV makes it look like an angel on skates (in that he makes it look like I could skate... and I can't...)

Can't wait to see Karlsson too.

As for an actual Leafs update... Liles seems to be coming back. Seems like tomorrow.

As of now, the Leafs have a 70.5% of making the playoffs. That's better then what we're used to, isn't it?

Aaannnd. That's it.

Ayy congrats Nights.

Big B2B coming up. Getting 1 of 2 should be the goal.

Liles approaching return:

Feels good to be on the trip in Pittsburgh w the guys. Good dinner in shadeyside. #getmebackoutthere #beentoolong

I want Fleury dead. Malkin too.

Wow. Just wow.

I guess it goes to show the Leafs haven't completly shaved off their habit of breakign down horribly. Wow. I am still hating this.

Leafs couldn't have looked better tonight. Incredibly flukey game. And I take back whatever I said before of fleury sucking.

**TK12555** · January 31, 2012, 10:02 PM

I'm so rattled it's ridiculous. Wow. Couldn't have played a better game and just got royally screwed. Bad bounces, bad falls, unlucky scrums...should've been an easy 2 points.

**Big Ev** · January 31, 2012, 10:05 PM

**** the refs, you know they're brutal when they disallow a Toronto goal

**TML** · January 31, 2012, 10:30 PM

Man...our defence is atrocious. Phaneuf's an idiot, so are Schenn and Komi. I don't like Gardiner. Steckel's pisses me off. Gustavsson's got to get better at stopping point-blank shots, his reactions aren't fast enough, he doesn't cut the angle down enough well. On the plus side, Kulie and Grabs looked really good. This should have been an easy two points tonight.

I'm pissed off.

**wendelclark17** · January 31, 2012, 10:37 PM

FACK !! Wasted opportunity for 2 points. Brutal last ten minutes.

**TK12555** · January 31, 2012, 10:39 PM

It was unfortunate. We played an awesome game and a couple bad breaks screwed us over. That's all. It sucks but it happens.

Time to let it go, realize we got a point, and move on to tomorrow's game. No use crying over spilled milk at this point.

**Nights** · February 1, 2012, 10:10 AM

Am I the only one who still feels this way?

Chris Johnston @reporterchris
Nazem Kadri and Keith Aulie gone from the #leafs. Looks like they've been sent down to AHL.
