leafs

Babcock, Kessel and Phaneuf are not enough (in my opinion) to make the Leafs a legit contender.

One example of how it could work is if the Leafs had the TV rights to the new team.

The Leafs were under-achievers last year and recently hired arguably the best coach in the league in Mike Babcock.

With maybe the exception of this season, the Toronto Maple Leafs were basically guaranteed to sell out every game.

You can buy a 2013 used Nissan Leafs with under 10k miles for under $12k.

Okay so the Maple Leafs are the analog to the NBA New York Knicks!

There's been quite a few stories of Nissan having issues with their dealerships not being very interested in selling Leafs for instance.

Are you saying the Leafs weren't spending at the cap from 2005 onward?

Not to say that teams aren't on an equal footing, but the Leafs might be in a very different spot with no cap.

The Maple Leafs are one of, if not the richest team in hockey.

I think hell would freeze over before the Leafs allowed another team to enter their geographic monopoly.

Can you imagine what would happen if the Leafs won a cup?

Most of my forty-some-odd-years have been "lean" years for the Leafs.

While I've managed to "check out" on the Leafs for almost a decade now, I feel especially bad for longtime fans like my Dad, who year-in, year-out get set up with trumped up expectations for the Leafs only to be let down every single time.

Leafs players are put under an enormous spotlight, and given way more scrutiny than any other team's players.

Until recently, the Ontario Teachers' Pension Plan owned the Toronto Maple Leafs, one of the most profitable pro sports teams in the world.

This is what the Leafs' GM Nonis used to free up cap space by trading Clarkson to the Blue Jackets for Nathan Horton, for example.
