Buds, Burke lowest of the low
Now 16 months into his tenure as Toronto Maple Leafs GM the club has sunk to its lowest position since 1990-91

Patrick Marleau to the Leafs makes sense
Wrong thread, my very confused scabs-loving friend. Wrong thread. This belongs in the Leafs thread. Capiche?
Buds, Burke lowest of the low
Now 16 months into his tenure as Toronto Maple Leafs GM the club has sunk to its lowest position since 1990-91
He arrived, as is the custom, amid fanfare, pomp and grandeur, feted as the Stanley Cup-toting saviour of a franchise sorely in need of one.
Sixteen months later, however, Brian Burke’s returns as GM of the Toronto Maple Leafs haven’t been good.
Regardless of what happens tonight against the Montreal Canadiens, the Leafs will finish second last in the NHL – 29th overall – this season, the lowest rung they’ve occupied since placing 20th of 21 teams in 1990-91.
Even with a win, the Leafs will exit 2009-10 with only 74 points, seven fewer than a year ago, a remarkable regression given how weak the Eastern Conference is this season and the fact Burke had nine months to evaluate and rework his roster leading up to training camp.

A great run for the Habs, but like all good things ….
Congratulations to the Flyers, but I think Chicago in five.
Why is it that every Toronto writer and every Leaf fan deludes themselves into thinking that every player in the league is just dying to play for the Leafs?
Fact is, there are 29 better places to play. And that's just in North America. Get used to it.

Hey, that's okay Doc - after all, most people can't remember the last time the leafs played in the finals of the Cup.
I don't mind. This is coming from this board's #1 cyberstalker, after all.
Close: it's actually the board's # 1 conscience.
