Last year was more fun to watch than it has been in years, and to be blunt, the Flames were generally awful. I'd rather watch a bunch of scrubs work their asses off and lose by a goal or two than watch fat slobs snipe 35 by scabbing off the hard work of others.
Kessel and the Leafs are a joke. Edmonton is no good.

I watched a fair number of Flames games last year and they same to be an easy team to get behind. Always seemed to work hard, even though the talent wasn't there.
If you watch a few Leafs games you will see that Kessel has actually changed the way he plays quite a bit. He isn't a loafer like Ovechkin, he almost always is skating hard to get back into the play and I remember quite a few times last year he made some nice plays on the backcheck.
Plus as a Leafs fan Kessel is one of the few enjoyable players to watch on the team.
The biggest loafer on the Leafs is Lupul. When that guy is actually playing and not hurt, he is playing very little defense and just floating around.
