Don't you agree that the leafs stink and will not win a Stanley cup like they did not in 41 years?

Question

Cmon, a team not winning a stanley cup in 41 years! Even the senators won a stanley cup!

Answer 1

I like being able to talk sh** to Leafs fans, but at the same time, there's no rivalry anymore.  If the Wings went back to the East I might enjoy the fact that they're horrible but we never see them.  This year's home opener should be interesting (Leafs at Detroit) but not interesting enough.  More like a clinic than a game.  There's no reason for them to be this horrible for this long.  Montreal has the impressive statistics and records, but when I think Canadian hockey I think Toronto Maple Leafs.  I wish they were better, because as a Detroit fan and Detroit native I like to see nothern teams do better.  I hate when teams (e.g., TBL, CAR, ANA, etc...) from the south with a completely ignorant, naive, and undeserving fanbase get to watch their team excel while original six teams like Chicago and Toronto get stuck with horrible GMs and owners or whatever the problem seems to be.  Why can't a team like Toronto find a legitimate front office staff?  Shouldn't they have the most loyal supporters?  Shouldn't they have more to choose from?  I would think, with the still existing Canadian prominence in NHL hockey, that the majority of NHL staff would be of Canadian origin.  I know that the Red Wings' front office is mostly Canadian, and while we border Ontario we are still American.  I would think Toronto would have a stacked front office, as well as the best scouting.  I wish I could tell you what they're doing wrong, but it seems like a lot of promising players never turn out for them.  A lot of bad decision making by management too, aren't the Leafs hiring a new GM after this season?

Answer 2

There eventually going to win it. And all the haters can just shove it.

Go Leafs Go.

Answer 3

The Senators have ever won a cup.  As for the Leafs they will suck for at least the next two or three years, but after that they will emerge as one of the top teams in the league having drafted well and collected prospects.  Don't believe me?  Look at teams like the Capitals and Penguins they sucked, but now they accumulated draft picks and developed their prospects they are two of the top teams in the NHL.

Answer 4

This angers me too!!!

oh and the senators the last time they won they was like in the 1920's

Answer 5

Talking about Leafs , someone may hit the abuse button. Please tie me up and make me listem to chalk board scatch , bamboo under the fingernails anything but the leafs. Seriously I agree. Unless Fletcher can get Gilmore out of retirement

Answer 6

I agree that the Leafs stink but who cares about not winning a cup there are Hundreds of reasons to hate the Leafs!

Answer 7

Who signs Finger to a $14m deal!  The team will never win!

GO RED WINGS!!!!

Answer 8

Actually, no team named the Ottawa Senators have won the Cup since 1927.  And if you want to talk about teams not winning the Cup for a long time, let's talk about the 47 year drought of Chicago.

Answer 9

Big Deal.  Some teams like the Sabers and Capitals have not won a cup ever, and they have been around since the 70's.  The Chicago Cubs haven't won the world series in like 100 years.  

Yeah we stink and we are pathetic, but we're not the only ones.  At least we sell out all our games.

Oh, and do your home work because the Sens haven't won a cup in a long, long time.  Much longer than the Leafs.

There is always next year....or the year after that....or the year after that.....or the Raptors may win the NBA Championship first.

Your teams must be really sucky for you to hold such a grudge against a team that hasn't made the playoffs since before the strike.

Answer 10

It's a shame, too. It would be good for hockey if the Leafs won a Cup.

Answer 11

So....how's that local sports team?

Answer 12

Hockey Section: Attack the trolls!!

Answer 13

lol !!!

Your brother asked this haha thats funny...

but still being a leafs fan man this sucks! I guess it angers me but i get used to it!

Answer 14

Funny you would want to compare the Leafs playoff success to Ottawa's. Did you realize that during last year's playoffs, Toronto's Matt Stajan matched the Sens top line in goals scored and was also 11 points better in the plus/minus column. Not bad for a third line utility guy who's team stinks. Uhh, who's team stinks?

Won a Stanley Cup? If a team moves and 60 or 70 years later someone brings in a new team, using the old name, does not give you the right to adopt the first team's history.

Answer 15

Ottawa Senators have won the cup. Same name, but different franchise.

Whenever a Sens fan makes fun of a Leafs fan for not winning the cup in 40 years, they always say "At least it's not 80 years!". If you look at how many years the Senators (including the original) have been active, the Cup has been in Ottawa more times than Toronto.

Answer 16

Why such negativity? I hope they win soon, then maybe people will stop giving them so much c**p!

Answer 17

As a Leaf fan, this statement angers me. Although I am used to it.

I will tell you that even though we have not won a cup in 41 years, we still have the 2nd most cups out of any team. =)

But let me ask you something: Have you heard of a team called the Chicago Blackhawks? They have not won since 1961. You don't hear anyone going off about that now, do you?

And another question: When the h**l did the Senators (current team, not one from the 1920's) win the Stanley Cup? Answer me that.

So before you beat the deadhorse and repeat the same old cliches, learn your facts.

Kate - Thank you for your sympathy! =P

Also, welcome back! =)

Answer 18

for sure

Answer 19

I feel really bad for Leaf fans. Their team gets picked on too much!
