Can the Leafs score 270? Print E-mail
There's an interesting projection of goals per team for the coming 2007-2008 season over at dobberhockey.com .

Projected Top 5 Teams by Goals For

1. Pittsburgh
2. Ottawa
3. Buffalo
4. Toronto
5. Colorado


Jason BlakeIf this is the case, we should expect some very high scoring games in the Northeast this season.

Interesting to see an expected 12 goal production increase, obviously from the addition of Jason Blake.  If the Leafs can live up to these projections, and see more consistent goaltending from the team of Toskala and Raycroft, we should see some good games on HNICevery SaturdayThis is going to sound very jaded, but as a true Leafs fan, it's hard to truly believe we have the potential to succeed.  Any time I see something this optimistic, I get visions of Jason Blake going down in a knee-on-knee collision in mid-November.  Yeah I shouldn't say it but we all expect this sort of luck.

We are just 3 weeks away from our first pre-season game against the Lowe's Oilers and big Dustin Penner (seriously, he's 6'4").

In other news, Belfour has officially signed in Sweden - too bad he'll no longer be able to increase his NHL wins, shutouts or games played totals, but his numbers will still keep him as one of the best ranked goaltenders for a long time.
