This was a punch to the gut as the team entered year one of the Shanahan rebuild. It was a reality check for the Toronto Maple Leafs as it showed how far they had fallen.
These were the rankings for the Maple Leafs last season:
Overall: 122
Title track: 120
Ownership: 115
Coaching: 38
Players: 122
Fan relations: 122
Affordability: 122
Stadium experience: 116
Bang for the buck: 122
Change from last year: 0
However, this year they handed the worst franchise title to the San Francisco 49ers.
