Maple Leafs core players show, again, they are not winners
before and after the officials decided to go all Zeno’s Paradox with the idea of when a play is dead .
If Dubas had time owing on his contract, inertia might save him again. But how are you going to sell the idea of signing this architect to a new deal after we’ve just watched his half-completed cathedral collapse again? All those boats have sailed. They’re so far out at sea, you’d need radar to spot them. There is no starting over without blowing this team into matchsticks. Does anyone in Toronto want to hear the word ‘tank’? Because that’s what we’d be talking about.
Do you recall Sidney Crosby, Mark Messier, Jarome Iginla, Scott Stevens or – you could list a hundred more guys – having a little strop about how unfair the media is to them personally 24 or so hours before a game that will define them as competitors?As currently constructed, the Toronto Maple Leafs aren’t winners. You can’t turn a guy who doesn’t want to be a winner into one by wishing it so.
No president, no GM and no coach can make them so. They don’t have that special thing that Stanley Cup winners have. Years into their careers, they are no closer to having it. In fact, they may be further away.And what will those players take from all this? That the refs screwed them. That nobody was nice to them and now they’re angry . That this town doesn’t appreciate what it’s got. That maybe things would be better in Arizona or Dallas, where everyone leaves you alone.
