At this point, the best thing Leaf fans can do is bet against their team. If the Leafs win the next game, they lose money but get to witness a historic event. If Leafs lose, they can still get free money out of it.

[@ldhorricks]

Good Morning from Prague ( my home of the last 30+ years). Well I was 6 the when I watched the leafs last win the cup (sitting on my dad's lap in our basement in Calgary)...of course it's also the last time they have been in the finals...which perhaps is more of a sad reality than not having won since then. But lets not forget that there is/were other teams with long stretches of ineptitude and pain of not being able to win it all...Shall we go through some of them: NYR had a 54 year cup drought, Chicago 49yrs, Detroit 42 years, Boston 38 years, it took St. Louis 53 years to finally win it, LA 45 years, Washington took 44 years to win the cup, Flyers haven't won in 48 years, its been 40 years since the Islanders have won. Van and Buff are both into a 53 year stretch of never having won the cup since joining the league which maybe is the worst record of ineptitude. Minnesota (with two different franchises) have never won over a combined 49 years of NHL play...Winnipeg with two franchises have never won in 29 combined years. A lot teams and fans had long stretches of heartbreak...four of those being Original Six teams. But Toronto is Toronto and it's arguably the most unforgiving, pressure filled Hockey Market and perhaps any major sports market. I think it's how they have lost in recent years that has really turned the screw of agony. And warranted or not, there is no team that people (mostly Canadians) love to see lose more than the Leafs. Leafs fans and media probably don't do themselves any favours in this regard. I'm a Leafs at heart but I always will cheer for Original Six teams over any other team...those teams are all part of my childhood ,and all of my childhood hockey Heroes were obviously from those teams. In a side note, I was fortunate to have been (at a young age) taken on a trip by my Dad to see all of my heroes play live in all of the Original Six teams classic home Arenas: Maple Leaf Gardens, Montreal Forum, Chicago Stadium, Olympia in Detroit, Madison Square Garden, Boston Garden. I frankly don't care if I see the Leafs win the cup again...it would be nice, but I'm ok if I never see them win another cup. I've seen everything I need to see in terms of Hockey....including being in the building for 2 Canadian Olympic Gold Medal wins, 3 Canadian wins at IIHF World Championships, 5 Spengler cup wins, 2 Canada Cup Final wins., and 7 World Junior wins.

Somewhere in the nether regions, Harold Ballard is sitting beside his old friend Mephistopheles, saying : See Mephy, I told you that they weren't up to it ! Boy, If I was still around, things would have been different ! Mephistopheles smiled. Harold had just sinned again, boastfulness. He was therefore rightfully justified to inflict some additional torment to the gentleman. This is getting fun, said he. Let's do it again next year !
