The Toronto Maple Leafs are a joke, and being a fan of theirs means you have to be in on the joke.
The Toronto Maple Leafs haven’t even made the Stanley Cup Finals since the league expanded beyond six teams. The NHL moved from 21 to 32 teams in the last twenty years, and other than Columbus, Seattle and Nashville, every other team has at least played in the Finals over the last nearly 60 years.
During that time, the team hasn’t even won a scoring title or a major award (i.e Vezina, Norris or Hart).
Once upon a time, the team was on the verge of winning, and they added a #1 overall pick (Bryan Berard) with the chance to be one of the best defenseman of all-time.
