Amen to that.
Oilers fans convinced their team is leaps and bounds better than the Leafs and have been for years is funny to me. They play in arguably the weakest division in the league and we are seeing it yet again. Imagine if they played in they and the Leafs had flipped divisions years ago? Would we have seen them make 2 cup finals and the Leafs lack of playoff success been the same or might the Leafs have been the ones to have gone on deep playoff runs and the Oilers to have been the ones to have struggled to make it into the 2nd round year over year?
We will never know but you can’t gloss over the fact playing in a weaker division is a huge advantage.
Hey same for the Jays, love the AL east (barf)
I dont think the Leafs win if they were in a different div. but who knows. 2021-22 Leafs were the best version of the AM/mm/jt/wn leafs, and its been going down ever since.
