  1. slip float with a wooly bugger jig/fly, I have used one with a white body and a pink head, during the spawn find them in 2-3 feet of water in small back bays that have some weed growth. I have fished them in the Kawarthas using these methods. Also fish around cattails or  bullrush with your slip float . good luck out there and stay safe

  2. Leafs need to get there point shots thru to the goalie, they seem to dump it in the corner a lot and take a lot of wrist shots. There defence needs to learn how to take a slapshot from the point and keep it a foot off the ice and get it on NET.  With the sticks having more flex I think the defence are having a hard time keeping there shots down , a solution would be to change there sticks . It seems like every time they miss the net or have a shot blocked the puck goes the other way , killing the flow of their game.

    One of the things I like about Matthews game is his ability to tip the puck on shots from the point, he wasn't born with this ability, he practised it and  is pretty good at it, maybe some of the other Leafs could learn this skill , some of them don't even try tipping the shots from the point.

    There are lots of eyes on the Leafs now trying to  figure out what's wrong, it would be nice to know what Dubas thinks the problem is, I don't think it's Babcock.

    I heard Reilly and Tavares met with Babcock to discuss solutions, I hope Babcock told Reilly not to let them score when he is on the ice. 

     

     

  3. They play the Black Hawks on the road on sunday and lots of road games coming up, should be interesting.

    I am not sure how many hits Timashov threw last night , but i think he leads the Leafs in that category or maybe Moore.

    Barrie almost hit someone in the head with a slapshot from the point, now i know why players don't want to stand in front of the net . 

     

     

  4. I don't think the hit on Kerfoot was a clean hit , he put his shoulder into Kerfoot's head . i would classify that as a dirty hit. 

    It would be nice if the Leafs defencemen protected themselves when they see a check coming, put their elbows up or their stick. They would probably take a penalty but make it worth it. 

    If they took roughing penalties over hooking and tripping calls , i think babcock would like that better, i hope
