And yes all of Toronto's best players are forwards. Its one of their main issues
Calgary drafted 4th and 6th at the same period as Toronto drafted Marner, Matthews and Nylander. Drafted Bennett before Nylander, in fact. Calgary also ended up with the guy drafted just after Marner. Obviously Calgary should have been a contender since they drafted high between 2013 and 2016.

Goals against per game - Toronto was 8th, just behind Florida. Defence wasn't their issue. And Tanev is one of their best players.
