I just don't see how a team with Matthews (23), Marner (23), Nylnader (24), Dermott (turning 24 in Dec), Rielly (26) is a team that is win now. The only reason that migh t be the case is because of JT and I just don't believe that
Toronto has Robertson who might be in the top6 by the end of next year
And there is Sandin and Liljegren looking to break into the NHL
I just don't see why Toronto is in a win now mentality, unless this is an issue with you and patience
The Leafs are win now because folks thought our young forwards were like young Kane and Toews, but they are not, nor do our young d men play like Seabrook and Keith...adding Tavares was supposed to put us over-the-top...alas, we're nowhere near good enough. Instead of being like Chicago, we'll be lucky if we end up being like Washington. Tavares is getting older...Matthews and Nylander will be UFAs in 4 years...Marner in 5 years...Rielly needs a contract in 2 years...if not win now, when? If our stars keep squeezing this team out of every penny they could, we might not win anything at all for the next decade...that's sad to think about, but it's reality...so when folks think it's okay to overpay this player a million here and 2 million there, just think what you're really settling for...nothing.
