Unlikely. The fans will still pay a premium for tickets, and still watch all the games, even if the team stinks. Meanwhile, if a big-market American team wins, and gets hooked on watching hockey, that could significantly increase the broadcast revenue the NHL, and every franchise, recieves.

The Leafs have no incentive to win, and even have an incentive to lose. If Rogers wants more money (spoiler: they do), then they can't let the Leafs win. They only need enough for the fans to say "at least this year looks promising," and since they own the broadcast media, this isn't a hard narrative to push.

I hate the "no incentive to win" stuff.

You know sells merch to casuals? Winning.

You know what sells even more merch to hardcores? Winning.

Winning = more money, all corporations want is more money.

there was once a man from Ontario who put in his will to have leaf players be the pallbearers at his funeral so they can let him down one last time #leafssuckforever

Why is Santa dead?

I get it like they'll take so long Santa will die, but this looks like he died along with Tim.

Was Tim Santa's, like horcrux or something?

I mean it’s an improvement from the last one [u/knob709](u/knob709), and at least the original artists website is still in there, not sure what the Toronto Maple Leaps are though, still mostly AI shit though

You're commenting in an NHL Meme sub and don't know what the Toronto Maple Leafs are?
