Original Toronto Star caption: Sweep dream?: The mood was light yesterday at the Gardens as the Leafs made preparations for their Norris Division playoff opener against the Red wings tomorrow night in Detroit. After the practice; exhausted Leafs Greg Terrion (left) Borje Salming. Gary Leeman and Mark Osborne were predicting Toronto would sweep the first-place Wings in four straight. Toronto certainly hopes to improve on its 325 winning percentage; which makes it the worst playoff qualifier in NHL history.
