Mark Fraser takes slap shot to the face
Toronto Maple Leafs defenseman Mark Fraser knew that goalie James Reimer was down and out of the play and decided to get in front of this Bruins shot. Unfortunately for Fraser, the puck went higher than anticipated and caught him right in the forehead.

Leafs Pointed In The Right Direction
from David Shoalts of the Globe and Mail,
It is usually not the splashy trade or big free-agent signing that gives an NHL team a much-needed change in personality. More often, it is the kind of moves former Leafs general manager Brian Burke and his successor, David Nonis, made with these four players, starting almost a year ago.
