"Three wins in four games have the Toronto Maple Leafs talking about the postseason again."
That's the first line in today's Associated Press write up about our thrilling victory yesterday afternoon. This is our worst dream realized. The Leafs can't even lose properly.
As a fan with decades of Leaf worship under my belt, I've thoroughly enjoyed these wins over Ottawa, Montreal and Detroit. We're beating the best in the league and it's thanks to efforts from guys named Dominic Moore, Robbie Earl and Jiri Tlusty. It's fun, but it's that vicious cycle we know all too well.
We finish 9th, which gives us a taste of a playoff race, but it doesn't win you the cup, and that's just not good enough.
