Do the Leafs have a good plan for winning the SC?

[Ben Grimm]

Since they signed Tavares 6 years ago, they've won one playoff series. It seems like any other team would move on from the "Big 4" forwards and try to win a SC. What do you think?

Yeah, it’s amazing.

The past 70 years of ownership really shows you what they care about. MONEY.

 

[Three On Zero]

I think this will turn into a leafs bashing thread

 

[PunchImlach is Alive]

They have a better chance of winning the World Cup

 

[dirtydanglez]

signing tavares is where it all went wrong imo

 

[hamzarocks]

My boy are you new to hockey?

Leafs arent winning...maybe ever again

Shanahan is the worst president in the league

We are targetting #3 or 4Ds and hoping our 70ish pt playoff players (playing R1 almost exclusively) making ~53% of the cap next year will some how magically become 100 pt playoff players and wull us to a cup

Every team that has been a known choker changed their core up

Caps --> semin, Green, varlamov

Panthers --> Dadanov, Matheson, Hoffman, Hubes

Tampa (the leaf changes tbf) --> JT miller, Bishop

Avs --> Duchene, RoR, Varlamov

Blues --> Backes, Shattenkirk, Oshie


Leafs run the same 5 guys back, will extend marner 8 years and give Tavares a 2-3 year deal aftee and pretend we are close to being anythinf besides a 1st round bye for our opponents.

 

[Gil Gunderson]

They can. They have a lot of cap space. I never thought that Treliving was ever really a good GM, but even he can’t f*** up improving that team this summer.

 

[HockeyVirus]

What an interesting topic that has certainly not been beaten to death, revived, and beaten again

 

[Conspiracy Theorist]

Seems doubtful Canadian teams win.

 

[dukeofjive]

1 more year of tavares and he will take a pay cut, use that money to get a 1a/1b goalie tandem with woll, and it looks like there getting help on D this season.

 

[SUX2BU]

Ok, then

 

[Mickey Marner]

Novel thread

Winning doesn't make money

 

[miscs75]

The only thing they have a good plan for regarding the Stanley Cup is the parade route. Everything leading up is a work in progress.

 

[Enga Olly]

No but no one does. But by all means, haters please continue oh and genius Leaf "fans" you too, dying to hear whether you want rolls of tape or hockey pucks for Marner.

 

[robertocarlos]

1. Draft
2. ?????
3. Cup.

 

[tabness]

get McDavid in free agency

 

[OgeeOgelthorpe]

 

[GordonGraham]

They have a plan ,ride the same core every and hope they will lead them to the promised land instead they end up in shitville year in and year out but they always think next year will be the one

 

[eviohh26]

Score more goals.

How? Add more fire power. Defense and Goaltending is overrated if you just score more.

 

[Chaos2k7]

Even a broken clock is right twice a day

 

[Markster]

Best plan for the Leafs winning a Cup is to have Ontario secede from Canada and become the 51st state.

gotta stop overpaying "the core" by 3 million each. Cant win cups when theres next to no cap space to make big upgrades at TDL

 

[CupsOverCash]

Triple down on them is a good idea! I think they have one of those things where fans will support them no matter what so no need to make changes.

 

[ItWasJustified]

get McDavid in free agency

And make sure to pay him $15 million AAV so it's impossible to improve any other areas of the team.
