We lost Jason to Toronto via free agency. Understandable. We lost players due to management failures. Ziggy Palffy, LaFontaine was mismanaged...Okposo...But JT leaving cut us to the bone. You want to go? Go. But telling the team not to trade you and then leaving gutted us. Had he stayed the Isles would have won the Cup one of those years. Barzal being better slotted as a #2 center. JT will never be forgiven on the Island.
A lot of us Leafs fans see Tavares getting booed every time the Leafs play in Long Island and we wonder why fans there still do that after so much time has gone by, but you just explained it well, thanks.
Sundin and Kaberle refused to waive their no-trades to help the team and Leafs fans still love them. The whole JT hate is blaming him for management's errors.
My god, those white jerseys look like practice jerseys.
Lol!
I forgot about those Penguins jerseys...
I kind of like them
Wow fluery was stunned
Lol!

I liked him good player but we were a bad team back then....
He wasn't too bad a player, and the Leafs were a horrible team back then. They didn't make the playoffs between 2004 and the infamous 2013 playoffs.
