Toronto playing well? You have been drinking too many bud light doc
But anyhow, I do admit that Toronto is on the right direction and will be a contender in a year or 2. Which is great because Toronto deserve a winning team!! I fucking love Toronto, it's a hockey town that deserve to win the cup!
You don't think the Leafs have been playing well? Have you watched them this season? They're one of the top puck-possession teams in the league and playing very exciting hockey. But they've once again been a victim of bad goaltending which has led to playing catch-up hockey and losing leads in the third period. They should have beat the Blackawks in Chicago, leading 4-0 at one point. They lost a couple of games in the shootout. With good goaltending, they may have lost only one game so far. But kudos to the Viking for bouncing back and playing a strong game in their last game.
Edmonton won last night, which is great since the NHL is a better league when the Oilers are playing good hockey. The Canucks? An aging team with aging superstars. The Flames? The jury is out but i think they were a better team with Bob Hartley coaching. The Jets? They should be an improved team with Patrick Laine, but they did lose Andrew Ladd and Jacob Truba's absence isn't helping. The Sens will be like last season, a team on the fence. The habs? They always do well in October, so wait until they start dealing with injuries like most teams do. But the NHL is a better league when the habs play well, just like the Red Wings.
It should be an interesting and exciting season!
