Come on. Didn't you know that, according to Larry "Christmas Tree" Tanenbaum, the Leafs are the #1 franchise in the NHL. Here's his quote:
"'We are the No. 1 franchise in the NHL,'' Tanenbaum said. ''As far as I'm concerned we will always continue to be the No. 1 franchise in the NHL. We acted when we had these discussions with our colleagues at the governors meetings."
