caps >> at LW just because of OV?

Marleau had 27g, Hyman 40pts, Kapanen is ppg this year. caps have no depth after OV. vrana and burakovsky? meh

I take Ovechkin alone and any random AHL'ers above everyone the leafs have at LW. He just won the conn smythe in an epic performance - has won...4-5 rockets in a row or so? And seems to be just as motivated/ready this year.

Maybe Leafs aren't total crap at LW but i don't really see the comparison here with OV.

leafs, pens, a significant gap, caps

If it's about winning a cup this is ludicrous. If you're making your assessment "on paper" as to who is better - and if you were doing so with 0 knowledge of who won the cup or playoff history for the past 4-6 seasons - sure I could see that order. But knowing what has happened in the playoffs in the past few years - Leafs are dead last, easily so.

Actual winning vs "being good enough to win on paper" isn't the same thing. A ton of teams achieve the latter without the former. Until the Leafs prove they can win - they're last among those 3 teams

Ovechkin can score as many goals himself as the Leafs’ entire left side
