I feel like the Leafs embarass themselves enough and have enough problems that there is more than enough to pick from if you want ammo. But some people choose to try and take things to the extremes.
Reading the past few pages are people talking about the Leafs or the Wings? Like, god damn have the Leafs been straight up terrible at times this year. But, they have also been pretty dominate at other times.
The problem with the Leafs is not that the team is garbage. It's that the team has no consistency.
I would not be shocked at all for this Leafs team to get into the playoffs and absolutely destroy a team in one round, and then get destroyed in the next. Or hell, even game to game.
And the main thing people point to is the sense of urgency. It's not even a systems issue. It's just urgency. Leafs you know in the first 5 min how the game will go. Either they have a pace to their puck movement, or it looks like they just woke up and are trying to warm up in practice.
Not really an inbetween.
