Description
The Leafs' Stanley Cup drought has been a persistent problem for over 40 years. Al Strachan examines what's gone wrong and why, drawing on behind-the-scenes access and stories from fascinating personalities. Strachan explores the downfall of the team, including how Harold Ballard perpetuated it, the impact of wasted draft picks, and the consequences of passing on Wayne Gretzky. He also discusses the Phil Kessel trade and its implications for the team's future. The book offers a revealing look at professional hockey, shedding light on what other teams have done to succeed in the salary-cap era. For fans who love the Leafs or those who enjoy a critical perspective on their beloved team, Why the Leafs Still Suck is a thought-provoking and sometimes shocking inside look at the world of professional hockey.
