The market is the single biggest problem for the Leafs. Can they trade their fanbase and media coverage? That would probably be the most effective trade they could make to turn this team around.
These players are still people and when they're being constantly **** on, especially only 6 games in, and barely below .500 and run out of town, it's no surprise that any impact player there starts eyeing the exit.
I get expecting a lot, but the bi-polar "we're the best team in the league, no one can beat us, we're winning the cup" swing to "everyone on this team is garbage, fire everyone and blow it up" swing from game to game is insane.
