A playoff round win isn't enough. A Cup sure, that trumps allBill_Berg_is_sad said:I'll trade 75 Hart trophies for a playoff round win.

I used to be in the camp that only playoff success mattered. I'm sure it sounds like a cop-out to excuse the Leafs' flameouts the last 6 years, but honestly putting that aside as I get older I find myself enjoying outstanding regular-season performances as much as anything.
This team is easily the most fun Leafs squad I've seen since I started following the team. No one will displace Sundin as my favorite player, but Matthews (and Marner by his side) have taken it to a whole new level of enjoyment. It's just pure pleasure to watch their skills on display. Nylander and, yes, Tavares are great to watch too.
This is a hell of a big deal, actually. For a franchise that calls itself "storied" there are actually very few legendary players in its history ? nothing, if we're being honest with ourselves, compared to Montreal. If Matthews stays healthy he'll be in the stratosphere of the very best players who have ever played the game.
Sure, I want us to win a Cup ? badly. But I am going to enjoy Auston as often as I can for as long as he's a Leaf. Congrats to him, and good on him for not pretending like he didn't want/need the honors.

If he?s not posting it to his own Twitter, he?s pulling it out of his butt. It?s a clear indication he?s not willing to own the info.

TV segments actually just barely edge out twitter drops on my official list of "where legitimate information/rumours are released".

They still beat podcasts! Anyway unlike his thoughts on crypto I don't really think anything he said about the Leafs there is all that insane. It's reasonable to think that's where the Soups' agents are at at least.
