I think the Leafs are amazing because they're able to stay so positive when they have a team in their division that's more talented, with a better goalie, a HOF d-man, the best two-way center in hockey, and a boatload of young talent (anywhere from 4 to 6 rookies starting every night), AND a ton of quality prospects waiting in the wings. Pastrnak and McAvoy and Heinen and Debrusk and Bjork are all young and awesome, arguably a match for the young talent on Toronto, and on top of that they have the battled-tested core of Marchand, Bergeron, Krejci, Chara and Rask.

Despite ALL THAT the Leafs somehow stay positive, which is really cute and admirable.
