- One of the very best forward in the game (Lupul)
- An elite goal scorer (Kessel)
So if they have great defence, an elite defender, an elite franchise goalie and overall the best tandem in the entire NHL, why are they in the bottom 5 for GA/G?
If it's because they face the most shots, then why is it that a great defence lead by an elite defender can't bring that number down?
As well, would you say Washington has elite goaltending that is comparable to Toronto? Because they allow almost the same amount of shots, and have a better GA/G, so you could argue that their tandem is equal to that of Toronto, could you not?

LOL. Yeah, I've raved about that defence...
The Leafs desperately need a coach that can teach defense. they also need a solid top 4 guy who can play well defensively.
