I saw a few games between OTT and PHI that sure resembled playoff type games, not for the fighting, but the all-round tough checking and hard nose play. OTTAWA has alot to offer, and they collectively have playoff experience from last year, when I think they were less capable of handling playoff hockey. OTTAWA also has offensive depth and blueline strenght. It will be hard for TO to stop all that talent, esp. on special teams. I am not saying OTTAWA wins, as can be seen by my comments. TO's vets should come up with enough efforts to win in the end, but OTTAWA will put much miles on those aging LEAF legs. IMO
