Buffalo already feel better than the Leafs, as a team. Also beat the Leafs head-to-head 3 times in a row down the stretch last season.
Goalie is still the big question mark for them though. Comrie is a short term solution, at best. They need someone of their prospects (Levi, Portillo, Luukkonen) to turn out. But Toronto aren't great in goal either.
Toronto feels like they peaked last season, and doesn't play much like a team. They didn't improve as a team this last off-season, it's the same old/same old 40 million bucks for fancy drop passes and shit. They're not even constructed like a team, but as a group of 4–5 primadonnas and a revolving door of bottom 6 trash. And now their already half-suspect D is starting to fall apart too.
You could almost make a whole NHL team of recent Leafs prospects/middle 6 cast-offs having a field day on other teams: Kadri, Hyman, Brown, Marchment, Verhaeghe, Durzi, Kapanen, Brown, Johnsson, Grundström, Moore, et cetera.
Over half of those guys would be excellent additions to the current Leafs.
