I know this is like debating which blind man is a better driver but
the Senators have not accomplished more than the Leafs in the last 14
years (never mind the last 4 decades of Leafs history).
The Leafs have been to the conference finals 4 times since 1993 and
the Senators have been 1 time. Not only this, but the Leafs have
defeated the Senators in every head to head playoff matchup they have
ever had. Face it, neither the Sens or the Leafs have done anything
really good in the last decade and a half, but the Leafs have done a
little less nothing than the Sens have.

And I am more than a little curious how this ended up being posted to
the Harry Potter NG, let alone here in the Bruins NG....
