It is 19 years and counting since the last time the Leafs won a playoff series not 6 years. Besides that, you hit the nail on the head John, the Leafs need a better playoff type of lineup. They have too many guys that get you to the playoffs and not enough guys that get you through the playoff. The solution though is not trading Nylander, Matthews or Marner you need those guys to make the playoffs and hope they step up (like Nylander does) in the playoffs. The issue is they don't play team defense very well look at Tampa, every player to a man protects the front of the net when they get the lead and the lock it down. The Leafs don't do that they keep looking to score more and it seems like they think "oh well we just got scored on we will just score again to overcome this" the problem is the other team ends up locking down their zone and taking advantage of the Leafs run and gun style.
