we all have different opnions on what is “rebuild correctly”. the only opnions that counts is Chayka and Sundin’s.
I know you’ll be moaning and growning at every move they make and you don’t like any moves they make.

And most of those opinions will be wrong. If time has proven anything it’s that whatever the typical Leafs fans thinks is good, the opposite is usually correct.

If you look at the winners in the NHL, it’s pretty clear what works and what doesn’t. What the Leafs did previously did not work. And what Chayka did in Arizona failed miserably. So his opinion might “count” but it doesn’t mean it will work.

What does work is drafting high, drafting often and drafting well. Until the Leafs are elite at that, they will always end up failing everywhere else. The Leafs can’t build a team through mostly trades and UFAs because they simply suck at that too hard to make it a basis of a rebuild.

My complaints have been valid and correct because here we are, looking down the barrel of another rebuild with no Stanley Cup yet and if they don’t change their ways, that will continue for another 59 years.
