Why the Maple Leafs matter

Published Nov. 29, 2009 10:38 p.m. ET

Sometimes I get questions for my weekly Ask Adam mailbag that demand longer answers. Such was the case when Mitchell Foren of Halifax, N.S., submitted this earlier this week:

Hey Adam, I understand that the Maple Leafs are really bad this season, but I never remember a team in last place being talked about this much. Why?

Because they're the Leafs, Mitch. And it will be ever thus until the NHL ceases to operate, whether you, I or anybody else finds it appropriate.
