NHL contract grades: William Nylander gets big extension. Good for player, bad for team?
t.co
William Nylander doesn't have the track record to be making David Pastrnak money and the Leafs aren't paying for his prime years.

      It’s a hard trophy to win, but I have faith this will age poorly.

          With the no cup argument put to the side for a minute, they are in the entertainment business and Toronto is a pretty entertaining team to watch.

            They do make a good scene to throw your popcorn at. They’ve been looking pretty good, but I don’t really care until it counts. Which, for over 40 years now, they’ve been doing a sterling and consistent job of letting me down.

              That’s fair! I’m trying to be less of a rabid team fan and just enjoying the sport for what it is. I ditched all fantasy this year too. Still have a team I cheer for, obviously, but I was finding myself always angry/ornery.
