Toronto Mike

Maple Leafs 2, Devils 3

Leafs

Let's do a little compare and contrast...  I have a television on each floor of my home, but only one of them is hooked up to a digital terminal.  I watched the Leafs and Devils on a television that didn't have digital cable, and with five minutes remaining in the third period, I actually thought we were going to win another road game.  Two Devils goals later, I ran upstairs to check in on the Raptors game.

We were up by 40 against FUVC and the Nets.  That's not a typo, we were up by 40 damn points and we ended up winning 106-69.  We were dominating, taking New Jersey to school in their own building.  It was impressive, and a lot of fun.

The Leafs' current edition frustrates the hell out of me, but the Raps are clearly on the right track.  Both franchises are owned by the same peeps, and the difference is obvious.  They gave a proven, quality basketball guy autonomy and he's making good decisions and building a winner.  Why the hell can't we do the same thing on the hockey side?
