Hey sports fans my name is Jeff Zeffer, I am a huge hockey fan and a die hard Toronto Maple Leafs fan. A couple things about me are, I have been a member on several sports forums for a number of years and have been a sports writer since the start of 2010. I completed my Recreation and Leisure Services Diploma at Seneca College in April of 2012. I am looking to further my experience with RantSports.com and help them grow the awareness of their site, through my everyday work with the public in the Greater Toronto Area and in Southern Ontario.

The ‘Great 8′ we call him; Alex Ovechkin is his real name, but after the completion of 2011/12 for the ‘Great 8′ and the Washington Capitals. Who would of thought that Alex Ovechkin would of had one of the most disappointing season of his career?

Today I will be talking about the controversy surrounding Dion Phaneuf being awarded the captaincy of the Toronto Maple Leafs in 2010. A lot of fans are skeptical of Phaneuf ability to be in the role of a captain, let alone be the captain for one of the most history hockey franchise in the history of the NHL.
The Toronto Maple Leafs coach staff and management are already smiling down on their 2012 top draft selection, Morgan Rielly, after completion of the Maple Leafs’ annual prospect camp.

For the most part it has been an uneventful day of NHL free agency. None of the big names were signed to long term deals, no big time trades were made. This left us for a day of some minor league signings, but several signings of depth players.
With a thin free agent market, I will be taking another look at a trade scenario that could certainly improve the Toronto Maple Leafs team dramatically. The trade scenario that I am looking at is the fact that Jonathan Bernier wants out of Los Angeles and the Kings need to get rid of Bernier.
