<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>SevenLeg</b></div><div>1-A Canadian division is still a possibility, so the Habs are probably in the race along with Winnipeg, Edmonton and Toronto.
2- If they keep the current divisions, yes Boston and Tampa are still good but they did not improve this offseason, they arguably got worse.</div></div>

IF there is actually a Canadian division I think that the order of finish would be Toronto, Montreal/Vancouver, Vancouver/Montreal, Calgary, Edmonton, Winnipeg, Ottawa. Even as a Habs fan I can admit that Toronto has been a good regular season team for awhile now. The only knock against Toronto is Vancouver/Montreal/Calgary all have great goalie tandems which is gonna be key for a shortened and condensed season. Rumours are saying that there will be a lot of 3 games in 4 nights happening this season so having that backup that can play and eat minutes and wins is very important. I don't know if Campbell and Dell will do it for the Leafs but you never know.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>RomanovTheAnswer</b></div><div>I agree.

Jumbo Joe could potentially change the entire attitude dynamic of the Leafs that is necessary to become a true contender. If Defense works out and improves (which it should), the Leafs can be in true long-due Cup contender.</div></div>

I'm not sold on the defensive changes Toronto made this off-season. Plus their offense gets slower. Thorton and Spezza are not wheelers and neither is Simmonds. Toronto is a fast paced dynamic team, they should of kept to the theme.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Oodz</b></div><div>So Toronto addresses their main concern this off season and they somehow get worse?? They have the best offence in the league, and a very solid defence now, with a solid starting goaltender. Toronto is better at every position against the Habs except goalie. Montreal isn’t finishing in front of Tampa, Toronto, Boston period. All you guys did this off-season was trade away a former 70 point player for a middle 6 winger, and added tofolli LOL. Habs are certainly not an elite team and aren’t even better than the likes of Carolina, Islanders, CBJ. I honestly wouldn’t be surprised if they’re not a playoff team</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Oodz</b></div><div>I mean you guys still don’t have a first line centre, and are relying on KK and Suzuki to repeat the success they had in the playoffs to be successful. Shea Weber is not the players he used to be, and Price is declining. This team can finish as high as fourth/fifth in the division and as low as sixth behind Florida and realistically Buffalo who have a much much better forward core</div></div>

Are you eating road salt ? Toronto's offense got worse. Their depth is gone. Outside your top 6 your scoring punch is putrid. Your backend is legitimately worse. Brodie and Bogosian does not make your backend better then the Habs. You have Reilly. One top pairing Defense and a bunch of 4-5-6. Habs have two top pairing D in Weber and Petry (Argue this point and you're literally crazy - every analyst states Petry a top pairing on every team outside the Habs). Carey Price is still Carey Price. He is better then Anderson any day of the year and now with basically a 1A in Allen as a backup gives a lot of flexibility next season in a condensed year. I'll admit our top 6 is not as high powered of an offense as the Top 6 in Toronto, but the Habs are looking to deploy 3 second lines this year which to me gives more scoring options and depth.

I always have hope that Toronto fans will one day realize the sun doesn't shine out of their asses but I guess as expected a typical Leaf fan coming into a Habs post to stir the pot. Hopefully your team licks the spoon this year.
