The Habs' buns are burning red, Mikhail Grabovski is scorching hot, the Ottawa Senators have passed the Leafs in the standings, and Anton Stralman is filling the void left by teammate Tomas Kaberle. It's question time, folks.
1) The Ottawa Senators have finally passed the Leafs in the standings. The Leafs are now in possession of a 7th overall pick at the NHL Entry Draft in Montreal this summer. The Los Angeles Kings are 3 points back with a game in hand. Will the Leafs remain in 7th? Lower? Higher?
2) Leafs prospect Mikhail Stefanovich, from the QMJHL's Quebec Remparts, finished the season with 49 goals and 76 points in 56 games. Do you think he'll end up joining the Leafs at some point next season?
3) Grabovski scored 4 points Saturday night against his former team, the Montreal Canadiens. He has now tallied 18 goals and 40 points this season. Will he hit 20 goals? And what kind of future does he have with the Leafs?
4) Anton Stralman has 4 points in his last 6 games. Do you want him to finish the season with the Leafs, or would you rather Kaberle return to the line-up? What type of future does Stralman have with the Leafs? Is he our powerplay quarterback of the future?
5) What are your thoughts on Phil Oreskovic's play so far? Does he have a future with the Leafs (or the NHL)?
6) Alexei Ponikarovsky has 21 goals and 53 points this season. Trade him in the off-season - yay or nay?
7) Considering Tomas Kaberle and Pavel Kubina are rumored to be traded this summer, how much draft picks will the Leafs end up with (in total) by the time Draft Day comes a knockin'?
8) Will Justin Pogge serve as Vesa Toskala's back-up next season?
9) Toskala will be 100% healthy next season. Will he be the Toskala of 2007/08 or 2008/09?
10) What year will the Leafs win the Cup?
Bonus Question
1) Will the Montreal Canadiens make the playoffs? If the Leafs deliver a dramatic slow-mo finisher punch to the Habs' playoff hopes next Saturday, will you:
a) Go streaking?
b) Burn a Habs jersey and yell obscenities in the streets?
c) Burn police cruisers?
or...
d) All of the above

1. Leafs will drop to 6th, and will have to trade him to draft Bayden Schenn.
ReplyDelete2. He'll likely be a rookie and make the camp next season on 3rd line.
3. Yes, and he will be the Leafs 2nd line center for the next few years.
4.Stralman's recent physical play has helped his game. Sit Kaberle for the rest of the season, keep Stralman up and give him the ice time necessary.
5. Love him. Great player.
6. Depends on what you get for him. I'd rather keep him than trade him for a 2nd round pick. He could be used as leverage at the deadline.
7. Likely 1 more first, and they will keep one of the two.
8. Not sure if he'll ever be an NHL player.
9. I think his "injury" was a fraud.
