And what have they accomplished? Less than Treliving’s Flames

What do you mean?
It wasn't until Dubas got there that the Leafs actually started to rebuild. Before him, they were trying to do exactly what the Flames are trying to do now. Re-tool, sneak in as a 7th or 8th seed, and catch momentum.
If the Flames started a rebuild tomorrow, would you consider the last 3 or 4 years as part of the rebuild?
You are just proving my point. The Leafs delayed the inevitable.
