Leino Scores in Phili
Just caught Leino's first goal is a Flyer. Very pretty. Can't help but think back to his first goal as a Wing...
Anyone thing the change in atmosphere woke him up for real? Or is this just another case of Leino showing up for the big club with a dash of brilliance before disappearing into anonymity?
Perosnally, i think it's the latter. The moment he starts showing any skill, he'll cave under the pressure of satisfying philie fans, or just start thinking he's hot stuff again, and fall off in his own right.
Then again...maybe there's a place for a Leino like talent in the east, where everything seems a bit easier...

The Eastern Conference hasn’t picked up how to defend him yet. Just hit him and he will go away. I happened to see the goal too, thanks to a free trial week of NHL Center Ice. I was flipping channels and started watching the game moments before the goal. I thought, man that was a nice goal… who was that?? Then I saw it was Leino and laughed.
His goal was picked #3 in NHL.com's 10 best goals of the week
Datsyuk’s filthy steal – goal v. Nashville was #1.
