The Toronto Maple Leafs made a splash today, signing forward Colby Armstrong to a three-year contract worth 9M. Armstrong played 79 games last year scoring 15 goals and 29 points with 61 penalty minutes. The Leafs add more grit and physical presence to their lineup with this signing.

Just looking at the information floating around. Mapleleafs twitter releases rumour of "Bozak, Kulemin and Kaberle for 1st overall and high salaried player." That, in itself, is crazy. But I would have called the Phaneuf trade insane if someone had suggested it prior to it happening.

Tonight, the Toronto Maple Leafs will host the Atlanta Thrashers at the Air Canada Center. Atlanta is hoping to catch the Boston Bruins for the 8th seed in the East and snag a post-season berth, while the Maple Leafs are looking to continue a playoff of their own - the quest to get out of the bottom five.

"If we deserve to be there, we will be there," goalie Johan Hedberg told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.

Two Leafs players have food poisoning, so Nazem Kadri is an emergency call up for tonight’s game. No word as of what line he will be playing on just yet, but one thing is for sure this will be an interesting sneak peak at what Kadri and Kessel could bring to the club next season.

This is also a matchup with Ron Wilson’s former club. The Sharks have been strong as of late, going 8-1-1 in their last ten.

In this episode of Midnight with Mike Aldred, Vesa Toskala joins the show and discusses his role on the ice, his trade to the Anaheim Ducks and other wildly revealing perceptions of his life. Let's just say things get a little out of control.

It didn't take long for Dion Phaneuf to make an impact on the Leafs. Not only did he throw 6 hits in the game on Saturday, but fans got a look at his incredlble one-timer release, and his physicality on the back end.

Seems that shoulder injury is worse than first thought. He shuts it down for the year as per Bob McKenzie. Yes. This time it's legit.

"Our team doctors have recommended this after a determined effort to rehab the injury without surgery. Having this done immediately is the right thing to do for the Leafs. I am truly sorry that I will not be able to represent my country at the Olympics," said Komisarek in a statement.

Has Garnet Exelby been dealt to the Los Angeles Kings? It's believed Toronto has acquired a 4th round pick for the defenceman. He was pulled from the game for the entire third period, and there are reports that suggest Los Angeles has acquired him for depth going on their way to the post-season.


TSN has reported that no deal has been reached as of this time.
