Preview: Toronto visits Chicago

Toronto Maple Leafs Record: 3-8-5

Chicago Blackhawks Record: 10-5-2

Maple Leafs Record vs. Blackhawks Since 2005: 0-2-1-0

Maple Leafs Likely Goalie: Vesa Toskala

Blackhawks Likely Goalie: Cristobal Huet

Maple Leafs Top Scorer: Tomas Kaberle (2 goals, 20 points)

Blackhawks Top Scorer: Patrick Kane (5 goals, 17 points)

Injury Report: Chicago's Marian Hossa (shoulder) is still a couple weeks away. Dav Bolland (back surgery) is out for 3-4 months.

Once again, Toronto's blueline will get a boost as Mike Komisarek is out three weeks with a quad tear.

Preview Notes: Well the Blackhawks can go ahead and just put a W in the win/loss column as Vesa Toskala is in net tonight.

Toronto has been absolutely abysmal this season but has shown signs of life since Gustavsson and Kessel came back from injury. Luckily for the Leafs, Toskala and their awful D, this is the only game of the season against Original Six opponent Chicago.

Huet hasn't been strong himself and the 'Hawks have been struggling a bit but Cabbie Kane and the rest of the boys are incredibly dangerous and will most likely make this a very unpleasant night for Leafs Nation.

Habs Struggle, Blackhawks roll

Three Stars:
1. Kris Versteeg (1 goal, 1 assist, he was everywhere!)
2. Patrick Kane ( 2 assists, 4.5 misdemeanor assault charges)
3. Michael Cammalleri (1 goal)

Final Score:
chicago Blackhawk: 3
Montreal Canadiens: 2

Goalie Stats
Cristobal Huet: SV: 20 SV%: .909 GA: 2
Carey Price: SV: 33 SV%: .917 GA: 3

Recap Notes:
- Despite loss, Price played... well?
- He was a lot busier than Huet
- Price is used to balls flying at his face, not pucks
- Huet on a hot streak himself it seems...
- Patrick Sharp is a late bloomer, but still great
- Definitely a cheap shot by Andrew Ladd... his elbow was way up. Boo.
- Hal Gill continues to be a detriment to his team
- Cammalleri proving he can play without Iginla
- Huet let Moen score with 2.1 seconds left in the second... not cool
- Andrew Ladd's idol is Randy Savage
- Montreal gets a break with the Maple Leafs coming to town.

- Brent Seabrook returns to the Chicago blueline tonight
- Chicago offense angry after shutout to Predators... look to molest Carey Price
- Rumor is that Price hopes he gets molested. But not in the way I meant it above.
- Poor kids from Montreal... first Pittsburgh's offense, then Chicago's
- Kane saw a trick or treater dressed like a cabbie. News at 11
