Episode 6.18 - a podcast by Jeff Hume, Dave McCarthy

Ahead this week on AFITC, the Leafs mention the importance of the five games before the All Star Break towards getting back into the playoff race and then respond with two regrettable efforts in three games this week.

We`ll examine that question as we take you through losses to the New York Rangers and Washington Capitals and a win against the Anaheim Ducks to kick start the Redline Report.

The Revolving Door updates some Leaf injuries before Quick Hits wraps the segment with a look at some expensive comments made by LA Kings GM Dean Lombardi and why this year is turning into the year of the waiver claim.

Back Checking features Listener Contributions from Twitter, Facebook and a great email about Martin Brodeur, news on Peter Forsberg and Ray Emery, the Junior Hockey Report and the return of the Gong Banger with another Troubling Fact of the Week.
