Hey guys, just an update on the CPU.

Toronto gets put out

I couldn't wait any longer here guys and I played the rest of the playoffs which seen the Leafs loose out to Carolina 4-3

Game 6 in Toronto was just bad for us; we were behind the 8 ball the entire time and ended the game losing 4-3 in regulation.

Game 7 in Carolina was an extremely hard fought game between both clubs, I ended up losing 2-1 in regulation but I cant fault the guys as it was such a good game it really could have went either way.

I want to take a moment to thank everyone who has taken the time to read this and post comments, I really do appreciate it, and I am sorry for the anti climatic ending to this season but it couldn't be helped, with the dying of my video card there wasn’t much I could do.

I have decided that, since this is the last year of my contract in Toronto and I have failed 2/3 season to achieve what management has wanted that I will carry on this chise with whatever team I sign with in the off season, but I will of course sign any deal Toronto passes my way, if they offer anything at all.

Wish me luck!

Good luck fine sir. I had a bad feeling the tide had turned after they forced a game 6. Never give up, you'll catch on somewhere.

Press conference with Brian Burke

Thanks for gathering guys, now that the playoffs have ended and we have taken the time to form our strategies for what’s remaining of the off season and heading into this years draft I wanted to take some time today to discuss a few things with everyone here in Leaf land.

First off I want to announce that the Toronto Maple Leafs and I have agreed to a five year extension on my contract here, which I was extremely happy and excited to sign, it's been a rocky road but one worth traveling here in Toronto.

I really can’t express how excited I am to continue on the journey with this club into the future and expand on the success of this particular last season we had.

I also wanted to express my gratitude to everyone here in Toronto, and that includes everyone, I want to thank the fans for being as patient as possible with me and the club, we needed time to develop and produce, and this last season is proof of our success here.

I wanted to thank our management and coaching staff, everyone has done a top notch job from scout to assistant GM. Doug Gilmour has done a fantastic job here in Toronto and as his contract is expiring this off season we will be sitting down shortly and talking contract with him as well, I am hopeful that Doug will re sign with us here as I believe he was a big part of our strong season as well.

Looking forward to this off season it is hard to say what will happen, but we have many contracts on many key players that need to be addressed and now that things are starting to fall into line we can begin that process and lock up the guys we feel will help us get back into the playoffs for next season.

As you all know we are entering this draft day with not many picks to use, but our scouts had told us they believed this was a weak draft and our depth in the minors is strong so we believe this will be of minor consequence to the team overall, seeing where those picks went, I believe they we well spent considering we went from a perennial playoff missing team to the conference finals.

Seeing as we only have a few weeks remaining here until draft day expected the news to be flowing from Toronto, there are a lot of loose ends that need to be tied up.

Once again before I leave, Thank you all for the jobs you have done, I am excited to be here for the next five years and I am proud of what you all have accomplished.

Yeah once they started to come back it was a whole different team and I couldnt contain them, Peckham was a massive loss at the end there.
