Maple Leafs should try to acquire this Kraken forward who got away

McCann has been a steady performer throughout his NHL career so far, especially since the Kraken joined the league. In the past four seasons, he has recorded at least 50 points, solidifying himself as a reliable player on the scoresheet for them. McCann has scored at least 20 goals in the past four seasons, which is a factor in why he is currently the Kraken's franchise all-time goal leader (132).

Maple Leafs castaway goaltender stops NHL's best team

In what can only be another cruel twist of fate for the Toronto Maple Leafs this season, a castaway put on one heck of a performance, stopping the NHL's best team, the Colorado Avalanche. On Wednesday night, former Maple Leafs PTO invitee James Reimer stymied the Colorado Avalanche en route to a 5-2 win. Reimer, now a member of the Ottawa Senators, stopped 16 shots in what was arguably one of the worst showings for the Avalanche this season.

Raptors' Ingram Paradox on full display in loss to Knicks

It is theoretically possible, thanks to quantum tunnelling, that a solid be permeated at any moment. Most things are just empty space, after all. Particles are waves, are uncertain, could align themselves in just the right way at just the right moment, for your hand to pass through a table when you press down upon it. Nothing is truly solid. Certainty doesn't exist. Thanks Heisenberg, Schrodinger, et al! It's possible that even the warmest, coziest, safest blanket can vanish if fate aligns.
