Jamie—I'd first like to thank you for choosing Bleacher Report as a place to write, and invite you to invite your friends, and anyone else who wants to have his or her mind heard.
On that same note, you had two very solid debut pieces here on Bleacher Report. There are a lot of Leafs fans on this site (as I'm assuming there are on any site) and it's always great to have fresh thoughts and ideas on here from people who want their voice heard. Just a couple tips when writing though: try and keep a space in between paragraphs for readability. Readers are more likely to be attracted to articles that are spaced out and easier to read rather than a whole bunch of text grouped together (just a minor thing with your second article), and the second point is that pictures can always be your friend.
You did a good job of incorporating images into your second article, so you probably figured that one out yourself, but if your article hits the front page of the NHL portion of the site, than a picture grabs the attention of the reader.
Overall, two very nice submissions to start off your B.R. career!

Hey Jamie,
I just wanted to let you know that Bleacher Report has launched out of beta with an updated look and feel and some great new features. Check out the "Game On" link in the header to find out more.
Next week we'll be launching the site to the world with some public announcements—and it'd be great to get a contribution from you between now and Tuesday to make Bleacher Report's launch a success.
Let me know if you need any help with ideas or have questions. Have a great weekend Jamie!
