Hey Ben,

Thanks for the read and thanks for being a fan. I am the Toronto Maple Leafs Community Leader for the website, and if you need anything at all, feel free to send me a message and I will see what I can do.

Also, for your listening pleasure, myself and a fellow Leafs writer host a Maple Leafs/NHL radio show called Leafs Talk Today. The first episode featured Brian Rolston and Chris DiDomenico. The quality isn't the best, but we are pleased to announce we have found a better broadcast engine which can meet our technical needs.

Check out the official website for the show

www.leafstalktoday.webs.com

Once again thanks, and if you need anything, you know where to find me.
