It occurred to me over the course of watching last night’s game that Vancouver has so much more of a complete team than Toronto has. The have a top notch goaltender, big and rough defensemen that can still move the puck and a nice combo of forwards that are all good players. Their defense punishes guys in front of their net and their forwards forecheck like crazy. I guess that what’s you get instead of paying 4 of your guys 1/2 of your allotted salary cap. We haven’t guys that produce and let’s face it Tavares is not worth the $11 million he is getting and I don’t think he’s a good leader. He is too soft spoken and timid as far as I’m concerned. This team is a .500 club (22-14-8) and Shanahan has been a colossal failure. They are the Dallas Cowboys of the NHL. Sorry Barilko as I know the Cowboys are your team but my point is a franchise with all kinds of money and a disappointment year after year. They are more concerned with making money than making a winner. No apologies necessary. This is definitely not a great time for the teams I follow. I used to be a Cowboys fan but they became too frustrating for me so I switched and became a Bills fan as I live 60 miles from Buffalo. I decided to cheer for our hometown team. But alas I feel the same frustration as with the Cowboys. And the Leafs are very similar but I’m with the Leafs for life. I guess I have a life sentence.

A life sentence with zero chance of parole😁 Many times I rue the day I became a lifelong Leafer but I was some happy last night.
