Toskala 3rd Star of Game

Well in today's game, Vesa Toskala had a great performance, which was proven when he got the 3rd star of the game! Congratulations Vesa!

For those of you that were watching the game, it was a great game to watch. Our star started in net this game, and held it the whole way through! Vesa did spectacular, blocking 30 of 32 shots!

In the first period there wasn't much scoring happening until 7:12 when Toronto's Kilger started it off, scoring the first goal of the game. In the first period there was no other goals.

Then 2:47 into the second period, Alexander Ovechkin took a shot, and it went by Toskala to tie it up 1-1. Late in the second period, Steen put the Leaf's ahead once again to make the score 2-1 in favour of the Leafs.

Then late in the third period, Semin scored on Toskala, making it look inevitable that the game would go into overtime, and that the Leafs once again lost it in the third period, as they seam to be doing lately. But then with less than a minute left Sundin skated down ice and scored on Washington to put the Leaf's ahead 3-2. The clock quickly ran out.

This sure does seam like a great start for Fletcher's general managing job! I wonder how he managed to pull this one off, or was it just luck that they won? I guess we'll find out for sure tomorrow when the Maple Leaf's face the capitals once again, but this time away from home.

I am unaware of who will be the starting goalie tomorrow for the Leaf's but I'm guessing that it will be Toskala again, due to his win today and him getting the 3rd star of the game award.

Tomorrow's game is at 7:00PM ET. It will be aired by Leafs TV(HD), and you can listen on XM Satellite Radio station 207.
