Quoting: Leafs09
Close to what a Cup?
Like I said, if things keep heading the direction they are, Boston will pass them, and the Leafs will be a wild card team.
Do you think that roster they have is built can beat Tampa, Calgary, Colorado, Carolina, St.Louis, Florida in a 7 game series?
The Leafs are a good team, and will be a 6-12 team in the NHL.
What’s the difference between 2nd or 3rd and the wildcard? The path is still most likely 3 of Florida, Tampa, Carolina, Boston.
Luckily they wouldn’t have to beat st.Louis, Calgary and Colorado. Could only face one of them in the final.
Don’t matter if they are 6-12, they need to win round 1 and then be final 8. Get momentum and confidence and go on a run. They have enough talent to do it, yes there are flaws, I’m just saying they are almost just as likely to get it together and win a round or two as they are to just lose again.
Cause hockey has a lot of randomness in it, especially when the Margins are thin in the playoffs.
One bounce last year in game 6 ot and no one is talking about how they can’t win.
Again they have to prove they can do it still. This is most likely the last chance with this whole core
