Afternoon Line

From Mike Brophy at The Hockey News:

Watching the Toronto Maple Leafs conduct business is always an interesting proposition.

Unlike watching a well-oiled success story like the Detroit Red Wings, a team that hires well, scouts well and gets the desired results, the Leafs are more like watching a drunken sailor on leave trying to weave his way through traffic while traveling westbound on Highway 401 East – on a bicycle.

plus more on the Leafs… if you’re up for that.

All starts with ownership. Until they get ownership that creates a true relationship with the front-office and coaching staff of the team they won’t have success.

Brophy is a tool as a general rule, but that analogy was awesome.
