I agree that with this many key injuries, the Leafs don't stand much chance. But if they can pull this series out of their ass, they might be healthy enough to keep going.
Leafs got a Mogilny, Sundin, Roberts. No one else is a big goal scorer on that team. Reneberg scored his one goal, Tucker's hurt and only shows up to play in Toronto.
You forgot about The Leafs Defense, its solid, and you also didnt mention the fact that Belfour is a quality goalie...
and as far as naming "big names"....Just ask the Rangers how well that strategy works
Big difference between the rangers and the flyers is chemistry. The Rangers have a team of individuals. As for Belfour, his best days are behind him, he has his ring and he's not gettin one this year. Belfour's biggest problem is he leaves massive rebounds which is LeClair's bread and Butter. Defense come on, Houlsey was turned inside out by Gagne who's half his age. McCabe goes to hit LeClair and he falls LeClair gets himself a slam dunk.
Flyers in 6 maybe even 5 if they can stop Toronto's only offense...Mogilny.

oh dont get me wrong, i think the Flyers will take the Leafs out (although id like the Leafs to win). I was just pointing out that The Leafs deserve more credit than you gave them, and that pointing out big names only works in Colorado...
