Unrealistic Hopes on the Line

With the way Montreal Canadiens netminder Christobel Huet has been playing in 2006, it could be all but over for the Maple Leafs as the two teams face off at the ACC tonight. The second worst team since January 1st could have their dreams of a first round playoff exit ripped from their hearts if they come up short yet again this evening. The Leafs currently sit last place in the Northeast Division and are just a single point ahead of the New York Islanders for 11th spot in the Eastern Conference. With the NHL trade deadline only two-days away, tonight's game could decide where a few current Leafs will be calling their home this weekend.
