With roughly 48 hours until opening night I thought it would be a good idea to set up the new season....by looking at last years top 10 moments.
Ummm...ok. Here we go.
Number #10
Doug Gilmour Night
I just needed a reason to post this video.
Number #9
Ron Wilson bitch slaps Howard Berger
1:30 - 2:42
The most anticipated fight since Ali/Frasier.
Ok...maybe Leeman/Savard. You know what I mean.
Number #8
Brian Burke comes aboard.
Ahahaha...I often wonder if Bryan Murray looked around after that exchange and expected Ashton Kutcher to turn the corner. "You've been PUNKED!"
Number #7
Grabovski/Kostitsyn and Grabovski/linesman
I love the "Nixon" at the end.
Number #6
Mark Bell on Daniel Alfredsson
Wait...what?? This didn't happen last year? Really???
Oh, well. It's posted now. I'm really lazy, so i'll just leave it.
Number #5
Drafting Nazem Kadri
I especially loved when the people who passed a gall stone when the Leafs drafted Kadri are the same ones who now claim the Leafs can't make the playoffs without him.
Number #4
Signing Jonas Gustavsson
Shoring up the Leafs goaltending was a priority this past off-season. If the first 3periods of Gustavsson's career are any indication then Burke and co. hit a homerun.
Number #3
Wendel Clark Night
Wendel Clark can kill two stones with one bird.
Number #2
Luke Schenn destroys Evgeni Malkin then eats Tyler Kennedy.
I'm not kidding. He literally ate Kennedy. Look at Pittsburgh's lineup this year. He's not even there.
Number #1
Nik Hagman Goal
Ok so it's the Panthers, which diminishes the "wow" a little bit, but the Leafs weren't exactly the '85 Oilers last year.
Stay truculant.
