If Toronto is such a great place to live and players love to go home and play for the leafs, then why did Gretzky decide to play with the rangers instead of a few miles east of Brantford Ontario?
- homiedclown



How did you get that from what he said? What does Gretzky have to do with this?

Christ. Should we be saying if buffalo is such a great city why did Babcock sign in Toronto? Don't be a foog.

A Last place team that improved upon the previous year's team. Who is about to add the CHL MVP of essentially everything and a prospect who broke the USNTDP records of Kane, and who has improved goaltending.

Sure, TO will be last place forever...

your better than this
follow the damn thread where he started out with
"Where do I start?
If Stamkos is leaving Tampa and coming home is key, why would he take a half baked option of Buffalo? Detroit is almost as close. Toronto is home"

Who is the best 4 free agents the leafs have signed in the last 10 years that wanted to "come home"

I have already resigned myself to not getting Stamkos or Vesey.

But that's OK. In Eichel & Reinhart we have a dynamic duo that one day could rival Kane/Toews.

Frnakly, I'd rather see us win with homegrown talent. And I think we are on our way to doing just that.

- Losman


Yes, I expect 5 years from now, they will be as good as Kane and Toews are, at that time.

I like when leaf fans bring up Cups. Most leaf fans were not even alive the last time they won but somehow they take pride in 40 years of losing

Yeah, I guess "a long time" is worse than "NEVER".....

You certainly have the IQ of someone who lives in Buffalo

Beffulo offered more. Kinda odd he would leave money on the table for a guy chasing money.

Reminds me of a fairytale about a guy who wanted to play close to home and chose a place thats 5 hours round trip away from home.

Yes, and while 49 years since a cup is embarrassing, infinity years is even worse...


As an FYI, I feel like deeming a stranger on the internet a "loser" is pretty bold when you know absolutely (frank) all about them....

Sorry Buffalo, but as a third party who has been to both cities many times, there is no pissing contest between Toronto and Buffalo, as either hockey fans or residents.

Toronto has a storied hockey franchise, Stanley Cup Banners, and is a world class city.

Buffalo has... Really good chicken wings.

Not fair to compare the hockey franchises.

The Leafs won their Cups when there were only 6 teams. So in today's NHL that is the equivalent of winning a division.

Since 1970, the Sabres have been to 2 Stanley Cup Finals and the Leafs have not been to any.

Since 1970, the Sabres have a higher regular season win %, more playoff series wins and have the better head to head record. AND the Sabres beat the Leafs in the 1999 ECF.

As for the cities, I like them both. Have been to each hundreds of times as I live in southern Ontario.

There is more to do and see in Toronto, but Buffalo has nicer residents.
