It’s possible the Toronto Maple Leafs have their say, yet. But it’s maybe more likely after the NHL pushed the return-to-play timetable back, and then pushed it back again, that the Leafs’ confusing and highly consequential season never reaches an appropriate conclusion.
Because of that, it’s possible that every word being written now about the 2019-20 season, wherein which the team finally sewed a letter on for a new captain, fired its multi-million-dollar-earning legend of a head coach, and was fighting tooth and nail just to make postseason, will be done entirely in retrospect.
For now, fingers will remain crossed, hoping that’s not the case, and we’ll continue to look back.
