...about your early years before you contended and how you were ready to give up hope because of how dismal your team was at that point?
Not gonna lie, it's comical at this point how our team is giving up leads very late in the game. Like we know the second that we give up a late goal,many more are coming. It's physics at this point. A lot of us are rational, though a lot of us believe this is the Armageddon of being a Leafs fan, and funneling all our hate towards our goaltending.
I try to be rational, telling my fellow Leaf fans I remember watching the Nordiques around the time they got Forsberg and were still losing, it was a freakn amazing time. You had "promise". You suffer short term pain for long term gain, like going on a diet. You deprive yourself of instant gratification like junk food for the longer goal of finally fitting your size 36" pants again.Just like you sacrifice wins in the meantime for the long term goal of your elite players acquiring experience.
So all you Penguins, Kings, Black Hawks etc fans, tell us what you were like about 3 years before you began to contend, and the roller-coaster it was? You had hope, but lost some %$#% close games right? Right? Please tell me you gave up a 2 goal lead with a couple of minutes left!?!
