1) I think there will be a move or 2 to shore up weaknesses by the TDL.
2) The team is not playing their best hockey in mid January. I think the plan is to be playing their best hockey by game 83. I am reasonably sure they will be much closer to the top of their game when it matters.
3) The Leafs window is just opening and will be open for 5-7 years. Like many teams before them they probably will have some more disappointments before they bust through.
Enjoy being a top 5 team. We've had a decade of losing before we turned the corner. The road to the top won't be a straight line.
