I sort of don't understand the hate for the Leafs other than that they get a lot of undeserved media love. There's nothing particularly scathing or unlikable about the team. I live out here and I find myself rooting for them a bit, even if they aren't my favorite team.
To be honest, the Leafs a few years back looked a lot like the Flames do this year, bare cupboards and not much hope on the horizon with a few prospects they tend to covet or perhaps overate (Kadri vs Baertschi).
