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

[Commander Clueless]

Well if I had to look at the evidence I would say no, but if ignore the evidence and just look how the team appears to be constructed...no.

Are we living in the middle of the hockey universe ????

After the Stars picked up Tanev, they were for sure winning the cup. I don’t see why Leafs wont

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?

The Leafs have not had a good plan for 50 years, the Leafs are all about printing money and they doing that very good.

 

[WarriorofTime]

What answer do you expect? Their 1-8 Playoff Series record in the Matthews era is working out fantastically?

 

[PunchImlach is Alive]

Just fold the team. This is ridiculous.

 

[Bizz]

The Laffs don't even have a good plan for winning the first round.

 

[Oleksiak]

Depends if they can find a taker for Marner, Nylander, Tavares, and Rielly without having to add too many picks as sweeteners.

 

[SheldonJPlankton]

The thing with the Leafs is that their organization and many of their key players are NPCs. As NPCs they can't move beyond their core programming...and their core essence is weakness, softness, fragility and heartlessness.

Failure is the ultimate result because success is an impossibility.

 

[FinlandPanther]

I don’t think so. They can’t win one round and when they finally did, they partied like it was 67 only to get smoked in round 2 Becuase they were probably still hungover thinking they won the cup

 

[Golden_Jet]

No, they screwed it up signing Tavares, then everyone else on team just compared themselves to JT in negotiating.

The leagues joke doesn’t live rent free. It’s a source of humor.

Lou is a dinosaur, but I rather want during the growing years for my young core a old dinosaur as my GM than cream buff weak and meek fake glass Dubas.

Mitch Marner turned into Dubas during these years. A Entitled, whiny, meek, selfish and fails to deliver.

 

[TMLegend]

The Leafs plan is to throw shit at the wall and pray something sticks.

I don't feel they're a very well run team at the moment.

 

[Peasy]

I can assure you they do not. And tbh I dont think they really care to. They care a lot more about having a consistent winning team in the regular season so they can sell jerseys and merchandise and also bank on that bit of extra playoff revenue every year and if they get something more its a bonus.

They are completely risk adverse and will not do what is required to win. Its not a surprise that all the Toronto sports teams owned by Rogers are a complete mess.
