I don’t know what it is with The Leafs since mid - December.
One step forward, two steps back, two steps forward, three steps back - you get the picture.
["Send me in, Coach": GAH circa 1959]
Way, way back in an earlier era (say, Dec. 20, 2009), they were doing much, much better, had a winning record over ten games.
I half-boldly predicted the following in a brilliant, optimist post:
I think if The Leafs maintain the same pace over the next 20 games they will have a fair - good chance of reaching a playoff position.
But now? Over their last ten games The Leafs are a sad 2 - 6 - 2 - 0, and are 9 points out of a playoff position.
Had Leaf scouts seen me play yesterday they would have said, “Not bad. We should send him up.”
Not that I was that good. But I was holding my own against younger players.
