I've had a suspicion about this for a long time and it's beginning to make more sense.
Brian Burke and Brendan Shanahan were both former employees of Gary Bettman, working directly under him.
Knowing that Bettman has purposefully built an entire economic model for the NHL that punishes successful franchises like the Leafs in order to propagate expansion teams in non-traditional markets , do you think that he has gone a step further by sending in his former subordinates to infiltrate and sabotage the Leafs as a franchise?
I mean look at all the terrible moves and the absolutely miserable record the Leafs have had...
Year after year they make blunder after blunder be it at the draft, free agency, or through trading. In terms of organizational direction, they zig when they should have zagged...zagged when they should zigged..
How bad the Leafs are as a franchise just defies statistics.
There is just no possible way the Leafs could be this bad short of them sabotaging themselves.
I have a nagging suspicion that this was done under the watchful eye of Gary Bettman, through his sleeper cell agents Brian Burke, Brendan Shanahan, and possibly also Richard Peddie.
