Maybe it’s because we just did the T25 over again, or maybe it’s the obvious state of the Maple Leafs salary cap and roster limits, or maybe it’s just the times. Whatever it is, I’m sick of the game where fans and media play pretend with minor leaguers at training camp. I’m sick of the game of will he or won’t he played with prospects who haven’t got a hope. I’m sick of the part where fans get terrified the bad player they don’t like will make the team even more.
The Maple Leafs had two choices heading into training camp when it comes to roster construction.
