True, but that doesn't mean that much in the sports world these days, it's all about what have you done for me recently. Good example would be the Chicago Cubs, they hired a few years back a GM by the name of Theo Epstein and all he had done prior was build two World Series Champions with the Boston Red Sox (You know the other team like the Cubs that had 80+ years of futility and curses). Well he came to Chicago and basically did a fire sale, he got rid of all the players of any value for young prospects. He did this for a few years, anytime someone had value he'd flip them for prospects, and the fans began to turn on him, calling for his job, wanting him fired. It took 4 years and now finally the team is coming together, but only because the owner of the team ignored all the media and fan bullshit, something Toronto has struggled with.
We'll have to see and obviously baseball is very different than Hockey, you don't need to stockpile as much and the turn around time can be a lot shorter since 3-4 players and good coaching can turn around a team fast and they definitely do have the coaching now.
I just hope Leaf fans don't expect to compete right away.
