Toronto Maple Leafs Are Primed for Another 1st Round Loss
The Toronto Maple Leafs have four of the best forwards in hockey, yet this team is still a joke.
When the playoffs start next year, the Toronto Maple Leafs will have secured 100-plus points in the regular season and may have home-ice advantage in the First Round, but unless this roster changes, they’ll be sent packing early, once again.

I don’t know how many times I can type this, but something needs to change and it needs to happen fast. Why does this organization value regular season success so much?
