DONT BLAME THE FANS. BLAME THE OWNERSHIP STRUCTURE … heck, if you want to get more narrowminded (but not narrowminded as to blame the fans)  … then simply put all the blame at JFJ's feet. but dont blame the fans. it betrays an extremely dim amount of intelligence on this particular subject.and dont think that there is even a possibility that a boycott would or even should happen.….now, all this being said… i do predict that the leafs will have a terrible Novemeber… and i dont mean 'terrible' as in the so-called terrible month they had in October where they were .500, i mean like a 4-7-2 record even worse than that. the first steps need to be taken: waive Belak, Battaglia, and Woz and when Wellwood returns, waive Gamache. KEEP TLUSTY with the big club for the rest of this year, i love how smart this kid is. and keep Stralman up – he makes mistakes but he is learning and he is pretty decent on the 2nd PP unit. but if they have the november that i think they are going to have, and if the grumblings that i am hearing are true, we could see a massive trade being swung by months end. If this is true, i hope and pray that a NEW GM will be in place when this trade is done … and NOT JFJ.for the record, i dont think trading Sundin is a bad idea (especially if you are getting some very good prospects in return … not picks). i DONT think trading Kaberle is good under any circumstances (with very rare exceptions). and as much as i would love to see it, i dont think trading McCabe (NMC) and Tucker (NTC, injured) is going to happen. Finally, i do think trading Kubina is possible.

(in terms of whatNHL teams they cheered for) I would not say Toronto is a "Leafs" city instead of a hockey city. I would agree with you that Toronto is a big-league city though.

The Raptors are a very very good team and could go very far this year and many years to come. It's just too bad that they can't think out the hockey thing the way they did with the basketball.
