Harrison Posted June 10, 2010 Report Posted June 10, 2010 (edited) We have the title! Longest drought without the CUP! Special kudos to the Leaf management staff for selling out every game and still being one of the highest revenue earners while chasing this prestigious title! Edited June 10, 2010 by Harrison
anders Posted June 10, 2010 Report Posted June 10, 2010 Thats awesome...i just hope they continue to produce crap on the ice for another 50 years, while still contributing to my wife's retirement!

Special kudos to the Leaf management staff for selling out every game and still being one of the highest revenue earners while chasing this prestigious title! Actually Phil you're incorrect. The Leafs are tied with both the Kings and Blues now for the longest cup drought. 42 years and counting. They've got a ways to go to best the record. I believe the Rangers went 54 years before winning in '94.

Harrison Posted June 10, 2010 Author Report Posted June 10, 2010 (edited) Close! Leafs - $168 Million Kings - $92 Million Blues - $80 Million http://www.forbes.com/lists/2009/31/hockey-values-09_NHL-Team-Valuations_Revenue.html Thanks Sinclair, Leafs - $168 Million - 29th place Kings - $92 Million - 9th place Blues - $80 Million - 15th place Capitals - $83 Million - 1st place Rebuild, rebuild, rebuild.... why would they?

AND if u wanna get really technical, the kings and blues began play in the NHL in the fall of 1967, the leafs won the cup in the spring of 1967... so they still have a few months on top of the kings and blues. lol

John Bacon Posted June 11, 2010 Report Posted June 11, 2010 Look on the bright side; the last Chicago cup win was followed by three consecutive Leaf cups... they say that history repeats itself.

bow slayer Posted June 11, 2010 Report Posted June 11, 2010 we will all see god before the leafs see the cup!!!!!! The Kings will also be the next Chicago......cup coming soon.
Flappn Posted June 11, 2010 Report Posted June 11, 2010 Leafs - $168 Million and no cup = the reason I never and won't buy leaf ticket's or Leaf's crap.
Dave Bailey Posted June 12, 2010 Report Posted June 12, 2010 I understand that the Leafs are soon going to unveil new uniforms. Here's a different idea - keep the old uniforms and fill them with hockey players. Just a thought. Actually I think that four things are more likely to happen in the world of sport before Toronto wins another Stanley Cup: 1) Soccer fans will collectively be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize 2) Cleveland will erect a statue honouring Art Modell 3) The Washington Generals will be crowned NBA champions 4) Brooklyn will declare a Walter O'Malley appreciation day Thank you and good night.
