With my tongue firmly planted in my cheek, here is my predictions of some of the headlines we may see this year regarding the Leafs. For those of us who have followed the team for a long time it will all make perfect sense. For those who are new to the Leafs, get ready for the ride!!!

LEAFS TO CREATE COMMITTEE TO DECIDE ON NEW CAPTAIN—SEPT/08Today Richard Peddie announced that the Leafs have decided to begin the new season without a Captain. He further announced that a blue ribbon committee composed of Cliff Fletcher, himself, Wendel Clark, Doug Gilmour and coach Ron Wilson would meet throughout the early part of the season and have serious discussions about who the next captain of the Leafs should be. “Being the Captain of the Toronto Maple Leafs is a huge honor and responsibility” he said in an interview with the Globe, “ we have some outstanding candidates on the team but we need to consider our options carefully, one thing I can promise you is that we will find the best possible Captain and the Leafs will once again have a great leader.”

TEACHERS UNION SELLS LEAFS TO ESTATE OF DECEASED FIJIAN BILLIONAIRE-- OCT/08The Teachers Union in a surprise move have divested themselves of their ownership position in the Toronto Maple Leafs and have sold their shares to the estate of a recently deceased Fijian Billionaire. The name of the Billionaire has not been revealed but he is rumored to have left all of his vast holdings to his twin 16 year old daughters. According to highly placed sources inside MLG ,the representative of the estate has informed the members of MLG's board that the two girls ,who have never even heard of hockey,would like to sit in on all board meetings and participate in all decisions affecting the future direction of the Leafs.
