I have been looking everywhere for the results to this years competition, but cant seem to find anything. Was the event cancelled? If so, It would be a shame, the competition has been around for years.

I don't think they had one.
Now, we shall await stupid comments like "Ha, the Leafs have skill? They looked like fairys out there!!!"

It's usually around Christmas time, isn't it..? I think that the Marlies game at the ACC on New Year's Day "might" have had something to do with it.. not happening...?

Its just weird that something that has been a tradition for 20 years was all of a sudden cancelled without any notice.

I guess I was thinking that I saw it earlier in the season, but when I did a quick search for it, I couldn't find anything...
This must have been from last season, because it looks like Beauch. in the pic here.. and the other photos show Giggy.. (could also be from 2009-10, too..?)
MAPLE LEAFS SKILLS COMPETITION
LEAFS SKILLS COMPETITION - SUNDAY NOVEMBER 14
On November 14th, the Leafs competed against one another for bragging rights as the faster skater, who has the hardest shot, and who is the most accurate shooter. For a full breakdown on winners of the Toronto Maple Leafs Skills Competition presented by Rogers, check out the press release. Thanks to the support of our fans and event sponsors, the Skills Competition raised $90,000 that will benefit the Team Up Foundation and the NHLPA Goals and Dreams Fund.

That's just b.s. so we will never get to see what kadri, damigo, mckegg, mueller, holzer, hamilton, scott can do out there, because they cancelled a big tradition? All of that stuff goes to charity. Man what a joke.

So once again, read my post and you'll know why the skills competition didn't happen. It was basically the same thing, just they had a practice rather then the usual skills competition. Go back and look it up you'll see colton Orr score and do the toebow.

They never had an ANNUAL practice this year due to players left to play for their home teams and also some are in the marlies cup run right now.
The scedule is so grueling now to put any real emphasis on a skills competition, who knows maybe they may have i in a month or so.

yeah a lot of people didnt really hear about it because it wasn't advertised much. I only went because i was offered a ticket. The practice part was kinda eh but after they did a small shootout drill (where orr scored) and it was really fun.
