Leafs @ Capitals - Apr. 15th, 7:00pm - CBC, Fan 590

We need Kapanen's sneaky moves and sick speed. Wonder how far away Fehr is from coming back? Does Kap unseat him? He's our new unknown X factor, hope he stays in.

My son hasn't seen a Leafs game in a few years and was blown away at how good they play now. And just think this is here to stay for a good long while, finally some respect.

The people who are Jim Hughson defenders are really going to have to work on this one. He legitimately seemed to care more about Carlson losing his stick than the goal that got scored.

Yep I'm pretty flabbergasted. I don't need the guy to be a leaf fan but i can't figure out what the hell happened there. Have to hope they bring someone else in for next game. Anyone at all.

We're stuck with him throughout the playoffs.

Inigo Montoya's sneaky no-look backhand pass empties the cage for Kasper. Holtby was stellar in this game, as was Freddie.

Personally never been a Hughson fan either. Good voice sure, but doesn't seem to get excited and therefore doesn't get the fans watching at home excited. Now I'm sure we aren't going to get a Joe Bowen calling the games on t.v., but would love to have someone passionate like Bob Cole back calling the big plays on the Leaf games.

W-O-W!!!!!!!  Great goal!  Great win!  Excellent effort from all fronts.  I liked the way the Leafs kept coming back and the way they handled Washington's speed and deftness.  They matched them well, and, once again, Freddy Andersen was nothing short of spectacular. 

Unbelievable victory when you consider the fact that the Leafs weren't being given much of a chance to win against the NHL's number one team.  My how they are proving a lot of skeptics wrong.  The young kids electrify this team and watching them compete with the entire team playing a complete game is incredibly satisfying.  Worth it's weight in entertainment!

In praise of the Leafs from Caps coach Barry Trotz: Game 1 (from TSN SportsCentre):
"The Leafs came well-prepared....their kids are exceptional...they have great talents...".

GO LEAFS GO!!!
 
i'm amazed by this team so far.  We do not look like the 8th seed playing the first.  Tonight's game could have went either way but only because these teams have looked so even so far.  at one point in OT they showed the shots..50/50 it seemed appropriate. 
 
Another stray herman OT thought he should've wrote during the game: man, it'd be sweet to have Phil for moments like these, with his game breaking speed and shot. Oh well, traded for the tank, so we could see our baby buds blossom.
