#1 CFL Fan!
The best thing that could happen to the Maple Leafs is for the fans to put them in the penalty box. It is clear that the desire they have to win is talk only. Carlyle writhes in the wind at every press conference and the players just go through the motions. The fans REALLY need to stop with the "best team in the history of hockey" talk, especially when ESPN votes you the worst sports franchise in North America.
It's one thing to be a loyal fan, but another thing entirely to stand up and send management a message that you're done with this crap!
I don't think the fans have called the Leafs "best team in the history of hockey". Or at least not any with an IQ comparable with that of an otter. Loyal fans, maybe, but wearing that as a badge of honour in an era where your team is somewhere between bad and awful year-in-year-out isn't exactly something to be bragging about, if anybody is at all.
Also, I didn't need ESPN to tell me anything about the Leafs, or about hockey in general.
