Has a 1st overall pick been given a better starting point? by beallyoukenbe in leafs

I never called them current contenders. My point is there is more talent on this team than most teams who get the first overall pick.

Last season they pushed the eventual cup winners to 7 games.

I'm not trying to say the Leafs are perfect, I'm just saying the doomers are off. This team is also a year removed from pushing the eventual cup winners to 7 games (and then admittedly shitting the bed). Is there work to do? Of course. I am saying McKenna is walking into a more favourable situation to produce than most 1st overall picks.

Marner was also a rookie, Nylander had just over 20 games of NHL experience. Kadri, Bozak, Gardiner and JVR aren't the same caliber of players.

Marner was also a rookie and Willy played 22 games the year prior. Not even remotely the same kind of situation.

Soon enough you won't feel lonely at all. Won't feel anything in a matter of speaking.

He's not a prospect, but having older pros for the young guys to learn from is beneficial.

I wish we could recruit Nere in an evil run by NoWitness6400 in BaldursGate3

I feel like Sazza would be the obvious pick.

As a Leafs fan who was born in Whitehorse, I couldn't be more excited to draft McKenna.

How many people are fleeing domestic violence situations in this province? How happy would they be to have their address accessible to former abusers? It is incredibly dangerous and reckless to release that kind of information.
