GDT: Maple Leafs @ Flames - Conference Wars

[Lunatik]

John Ferguson told them the team had to be rebuilt, and went to them with a plan to do so.

They told him to come back with a plan that included making the playoffs.

He then threw away draft picks/prospects to try and make the playoffs and was fired when he failed to make the playoffs.

The question is whether Shanahan has the green light, as has been speculated, to tear it down.

Feaster kind of did what Burke claimed he was doing and what the Oilers are still trying to figure out.

Monahan - Bennett
versus
RNH - Eichel

Being a Calgary resident I'll enjoy this ride. Being a Leafs' fan I'll be jealous.

I think things have changed with Rogers and Bell buying MLSE, both of their networks are trying to spin it as rebuild = good and losing = good.
