Leafs Hanging On

The Toronto Maple Leafs have been clinging to dear life for a long time now, but they just ain't giving up. Although it may be too little too late, they're still winning enough games to make people wonder. After losing two straight games in a shoot out, they were determined to win on Saturday night against the Philadelphia Flyers, preferably in regulation time. A task which they got to work on right away, scoring twice in the opening period. They added a few more, and the Flyers made some weak attempts at a late game comeback, but the Leafs ended up taking it 5-2.

The Leafs are still seven points back of a playoff spot, and with only five games remaining in the regular season, they'll need to win pretty much all of them, and hope that Montreal and/or Tampa Bay have a serious dry spell.
