BROTHERS THE DAY IS HERE

Hearing from BMac that Kessel will be inked to a 8x8 deal today. It would be the perfect start to this season

He is a top 10 scorer in this league, and has been for the last 3 years. locking him to a deal like that gives us his best years at a fair price.

I don't think it will take too long to extend Phaneuf once Kessel gets done.

Finally, watch out for Morgan Rielly, and Carter Ashton on the Leafs. Two promising rookies who impressed greatly at camp. Rielly is a smooth skating, offensive D, who was taken 5th OV 2 years from now. RC loves him, and we all know RC knows defence. Ashton was traded for Keith Aulie from the Lightning. He is a big, physical forward. Not too much offence, but he has the makings of a great 3rd line player. Hits anything that moves, and plays with a lot of tenacity.

GO LEAFS GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
