Re: Re: Re: Forget the leafs.
Every years the Leafs have an excuse (not reason) that conveniently suits them at that particular time. Never do they grab the bull by the horns and make a serious, honest commitment to a championship in the post expansion era. Just window dressing enough to dupe the people into thinking 'maybe', allowing them to hike tickets prices, sell more merchadise and renegoiate TV contracts. For Pete' sake its been 14 yrs since the old fart kicked the bucket!!!!!!!!!scubadoo said:... it seems Pat Quinn would prefer the Leafs not make any moves that would send any young players the other way in any deal.
You're dreaming. And exactly what MLSE is looking for - fans with their blinders on cheering for the team as Cup contenders no matter what the lineup is!! As long as the fans 'think' the Leafs can win then it washes away any responsibility from the handlers of MLSE.doubledown said:It comes down to injuries and goaltending. Up to now, the Leafs have been at or near the top. If they can avoid any more injuries, you never know, with their current roster they have as good a chance as Ottawa, Philly, NJ or TB. It would be nice to add some talent on the blueline, but if Belfour is healthy (?) and stays that way, good things can happen.
