........ because we are Toronto and we can't have nice things, ever.....
Chicago and Pittsburgh are fine to look at, but if you look at the most recent cup winners and finalists, there was several different ingredients there.
I don't look at models from 5-7 years ago. The league is different now. I look at the last 2 years and there is a very consistent theme of skill and toughness there between Boston, St. Louis, and Washington.
And, in the end, you need your goalie to be elite. Andersen needs to be better in the post-season, for sure.
