Yeah, you're right, they have been god awful the last 20 games - not sure how they are in a playoff spot right now.

Seriously? Toronto is 3-1 against Montreal this season. You honestly don't think that counts for anything?

If all goes according to plan it will be a Chicago vs. Pittsburgh final with Pittsburgh taking it in 7. Should be some great series this year.

Conn Smythe: Crosby with 13 goals and 17 assists in the playoffs.

At this point you should just be happy the Leafs are actually IN the playoffs.

I don't understand the Toronto love. I get that making playoffs is a big deal but to call them contenders with the depth on center they have is a little far fetched.

When Bozak is the best two way center available it raises question marks.
How will Kadri's line perform against the oppositions shutdown lines in a trap series? Will Grabo even be noticeable?

yeah, I can't see a team with around fifty points at this point being a legit contender...the Leafs are more in that 2nd tier with the Vancouvers

I'd like to know what would happen if Kadri or Grabo took several punches to the face. Would they just sit there and take it? Inquiring minds would like to know.

lol that's not what i'm saying, anything can happen in the playoffs with a little luck. I'm merely making reference to the leaf fans who believe their team ranks among the Chicago's and Pittsburgh's of the league.

I predict the Leafs will win their first game or two in the playoffs, then Leafs fans will anoint them Cup champs only to have them lose 4 consecutive games.
Seriously, if I was Leafs fan I would just be thrilled that they are even in the playoffs. Playoff hockey in HD is something to see.

How would they possibly end up playing Ottawa? I'd be thrilled but it's virtually impossible from what I can tell.

I made the mistake of using recent history as an influence and picked them to make it a decade without playoff hockey. Woulda been fun if they could have made it one full decade without playoffs, but 9 years is a pretty good run. I know I've enjoyed it.
