Regular season is behind us and we now have a team that can legitimately make a run for the Cup.
The ability to draw penalties will be critical, as the Leafs can beat anybody if they get enough opportunities. Two lethal powerplay units is quite deadly and unusual. That said, having four lines that can each score (albeit less so with Leoman in the lineup) is also pretty lethal in a head-to-head match up.
This team is about offense. If they can get competent goaltending and somewhat competent officiating, they'll go deep.
Predictions?
First Cup appearance in over 50 years!
