if you were pat burns what are the leafs to do i am a leaf supporter and i say the leafs are going down in four unless there is nothing short of a miracle or a stroke of genenius hits pat burns if you were pat burns what would you do living in the bay area i do not get enough leaf coverage to pull something out of the bag i would appreciate comments on the leaf detroit rd line match ups but here is the basic idea andreychuck and borchevsky have no business playing against the wings they are too small the key to any leafs success will have to be clark he is the only centre who can have any presence within stick lengths of the slot where the hell is anderson anderson can in days past get under peoples skin put a little more bluntly anderson has to be an asshole he used to be good at it we need him now perhaps perhaps the leafs can shut down detroit s second line i was dissappointed to see shepard and yserbeart flying last night these guys are the swing players for the wings last year they did a major choke in the playoffs and were to blame for the quick exit of the wings this has to happen again clark anderson gilmour should be able to out hustle this line anderson should do a nasty on yserbeart clark should bang the hell out of sheppard score gilmour score suggestions clarke anderson gilmour vs sheppard yserbeart andreychuck borchevsy vs detroit checking line toronto s checking line vs yzerman fedorov probert pray lots as suggested i would bench andreychuck and borchevsky to stir things up and through a monkey wrench into detroits game plan however if the detroit coaching would be dumb enough to play their checking line against these finesse players well then let them play potvin can not be faulted on of the goals keep him in van hellamond can not be faulted for the leafs demise either the wings defense shut down the leafs especially in the slot i hope pat burns realizes that his team was out hit out skated and out coached on monday night this was not a loss because of poor goaltending or officiating this calls for drastic measures or tee off is next monday jake go leafs
