If being #12 in the league made the Leafs D and G "below average" and "mediocre" I don't want to imagine what the Oilers D and G would be. Hopefully McDavid still has some passion for the game left when he comes home to TO in 7 years. God knows being on a ****ty team can suck it out of ya.
I think the "51 years and counting" jokes belong to those who have actually witnessed their teams win a championship. It's kind of ironic mocking another team for not winning a championship in so many years when they themselves haven't witnessed one for their own team.51 years and counting.......
The Leafs were 11th in GA last year, and Andersen finished 4th in Vezina voting (Talbot finished 4th 2 year ago only to flop last year), Andersen has been a top goalie since coming the Leafs. Don't compare the 2 teams, there's a reason why the Leafs are cup contenders and the Oilers aren't even favourites to make the playoffs in the weakest division in hockey.Below average defence with mediocre goal tending, just miss or are a bubble team. Essentially they are in the same boat as Toronto with less depth
To answer OP's question, yes they will miss the playoffs again.
They lack depth in several areas. And on top of that, the West has very good teams. Their coaching is trash too
How do the Oilers have the best record combined the past two years against the West? Better than any other Western team?
Toronto fans shouldn't talk until they actually win a playoff series. Half of the guys here were prob 1 years old when that happened last lol.

Difference is the Oilers are still garbage, 4 first OA picks and they still aren't favourites for a playoff spot in the weakest division in hockey, about to be 1/4 years of having McDavid and making the playoffs.Oilers last won a cup in 90 , made the finals in 06 and lost in game 7 , which unfortunately the Leafs have been no where close to doing....ouch. one Doug Gilmour run to the conference finals was the highlight of the last 52 years..... hotdam !
Then try to mock the Oilers 10 year track record, when the Leafs have been utter garbage for most of it too.....lol
Another first overall draft pick in Nugent Hopkins.who the heck is McJesus playing with this season?
One good year and this is where Leaf fans are at... same feeling was coming out of Oiler fans mouths last year. Oil gave up 9th fewest goals in 16-17, means squat this year.The Leafs were 11th in GA last year, and Andersen finished 4th in Vezina voting (Talbot finished 4th 2 year ago only to flop last year), Andersen has been a top goalie since coming the Leafs.

Win a play-off series.
John Tavares will lead the Leafs to the promised land. He will, let's hold our hands together and rejoice. Wait until the Leaf media get a hold of what toilet paper he uses to wipe his a×× with. Tavares better be ready for what's to come.51 years and counting.
I witnessed all 7 of the Oilers Cup runs, and celebrated 5 championships. Never seen a Leaf Cup winner in my lifetime, thank god.
2 years little guy, and it means squat for the Oilers because they flopped after making the playoffs 2 years ago and don't look like they'll make it this year. The Leafs built off of their playoff appearance going from 96 points to 105, the Oilers didn't even make the playoffs last year.One good year and this is where Leaf fans are at... same feeling was coming out of Oiler fans mouths last year.

Weakest division? Lol what are you smoking man. You would think that a fan from the center of the universe would know his divisions. Please google ....check out the Pacific division this year.Difference is the Oilers are still garbage, 4 first OA picks and they still aren't favourites for a playoff spot in the weakest division in hockey, about to be 1/4 years of having McDavid and making the playoffs.
I meant last year means nothing for the Leafs this year, like 2 years ago meant nothing for last years Oilers.2 years little guy, and it means squat for the Oilers because they flopped after making the playoffs 2 years ago and don't look like they'll make it this year.

I read that comment in Bob Coles voice and it sounded more funnier than it should have!!!Do the Oilers miss the playoffs again? Does a bear **** in the woods?
