It is interesting that this is getting more play than what is going on in the NHL.

The Canadiens scored 4 goals in the last period to come back from a 4-1 deficit last night and win 5-4. [Just in case you were not paying attention.]

Although I am a Canadiens fan before a Leafs fan, The Big Smoke had a similar night. Losing 2-0 at home, only to came back to win 5-2, scoring 5 goals in 5:22 in the third.

Maple Leafs, Maple Laffs, Maple Loafs. It all boils down to this: The last time they won the Stanley Cup, it was in black & white.

It's a fancy name they gave to the division of NCAA football that crowns their champion without the benefit of a playoff.

And something the University of Michigan will not be involved in this year. Sorta like the Hamilton Tiger-Cats situation this year.

It's Fox's tag for all the big bowl games after New Year's Day as a build up to the championship game.

I too call them the Maple Laughs.

But rest assured that when the TML win the Stanley Cup, it will be the biggest sports party that North America has ever seen.

Always wondered why it wasn't the Maple 'Leaves' as in: Toronto leaves the playoffs before the SC Final each year.

There's talk some years that Hamilton wants an NHL team. Especially since the co-CEO of Research in Motion was into purchasing a team.

"Why won't Hamilton ever get an NHL team?"

"Because then Toronto would want one too!"
