Toskala Ends Losing Streak

Well, I have great news for all you Vesa Toskala fans! Our star player has ended his losing streak, after him and the Toronto Maple Leafs beat the Ottawa Senators 4-2 tonight!

Tonights game was a great game if your a Toronto Maple Leafs fan, that's for sure! The game's first goal was scored by Moore 9:32 into the game, with the assist going to Devereaux. Then five minutes later, at 14:27, Toronto's Tlusty scored during a powerplay, which was caused by a hooking call on Ottawa's Schubert. The goal was assisted by Stajan and Blake, putting the leafs at 2-0. However, less than a minute later at 15:18 Ottawa's Foligno scored, putting the game at 2-1, for Toronto.

The second period proved to be scoreless, although Toronto passed up many scoring opportunities on a 5 on 3 powerplay, along with a couple 5 on 4 powerplays.

The third period had just as much scoring as the first did, although Toronto maintained their lead throughout the period. The first goal of the period was by Neil, of the Ottawa Senators 1:32 into the period, which caused a scare for Leafs fans when the game became tied up. Thankfully though, a few minutes later at 4:28, Colaiacovo scored for the Maple Leafs, putting the Leafs ahead once again. The goal was assisted by Earl and Moore. Then a couple minutes later, the Maple Leafs scored once again, this time being put in by Blake, with the assist going to Stajan. The rest of the period was scoreless, and the Maple Leaf's won 4-2, breaking their losing streak.

Toronto's next game is February 5th against the Florida Panthers, at 7:30PM ET. This game is also a home game. It will be aired on SNET, and those of you listening to the game on XM Satellite radio, turn your receivers to station 207.
