The Toronto Maple Leafs are going to be in a tricky spot this off-season.
While it’s true that the new Playoff format gives the Toronto Maple Leafs a potentially easier path to the Finals, the fact is that after a four month mid-season break, these should be the most unpredictable playoffs ever.
While the Leafs might get lucky and give us something fun to celebrate, the odds are that they won’t win (Even whoever the best team actually is will fail to win the Cup more than 60% of the time).
