They can barely win an actual hockey game now

Matthews might score 50 in 50 this year - 26 years old
Marner and Nylander are PPG-floor/100+ in a good year - 26 and 27 years old.
Tavares has 388 points in 397 games as a Leaf - 33 years old.
MacKinnon and Rantanen hadn’t won anything until they were 26 either. Joe Sakic was 26 and would’ve been waiting longer had they not acquired Roy.
Steve Yzerman was 31 when Detroit won their first.
It even took Wayne Gretzky five years.
The Leafs have an imperfect roster. It has holes.
Is it easier to find Matthews, Marner, Nylander and Tavares, or some blue line depth and a goalie.
Because the Calgary Flames have the latter.
Patience - it’s a virtue.
