In the Maple Leafs dressing room, on the white board that keeps the players up to date on schedules, there was an unusual announcement Friday.

Printed in large letters was a reminder that Saturday's visit by Montreal will be a very tough ticket and, if any player wants to purchase more than two, he'll basically have to beg teammates who might not need theirs. Don't expect extras to be floating around.

Yes, the hot Leafs against the hot Canadiens is a hot ticket. It's not the post-season but, for one night at the Air Canada Centre, it might just feel that way.
