To All the Leaf Fans...

This is a message for all the true Leaf fans. The ones who stick for their team in thick and thin.

The ones who saw a team of mediocre dead weight players with no future.

The ones who put up with Andrew Raycroft in net and nearly had a heart attack.

The ones who put up with Vesa Toskala and likely did have a heart attack.

The ones who watched an abomination of a team start the season 0-7-1.

The ones who had haters tell them the myriad of ways the Leafs sucked.

The ones who tolerated a roster made up Stajan, Toskala, Blake, Stempniak, Toskala, Wozniewski, Toskala, Mayers, Hollweg, Toskala and Toskala.

And, above all else.....the ones who, even when everything seemed bleak, when the sky seemed to be falling, when there seem to be no hope left in Leafs Nation, never gave up the hope that, someday, it was all gonna be okay. That someday, our suffering would come to an end.

And now we're 4-0. There's still 78 games to go, but this the moment that those fans have dreamed for; the glimmer of hope we knew would come someday. Leafs Nation, that hope has arrived.

You've waited five years to see something like this. Thanks for never breaking your faith. And, above all else this season: Don't. Stop. Believing.
