The way I see it, you have two very profitable hockey teams with excellent fan support.
Detroit appreciate the support from the fans and repays them by putting money back into the team each year to constantly improve it and give the fans what they want.
The Leaf's on the other hand, up until this year, have basically taken the profits and pocketed them. Giving very little back into the team except for a few big contracts but nothing that they truly need to be contenders. They do this because they know the place will consistently sell out and the fans will continue to be there.
Just my opinion.

In the oilers defence.....
Vancouver,calgary,colorado are all in the same division....
When you have to face those teams 6 times each a year, it makes it tough to make the playoffs...
How many other divisions have that quality of teams in one? Oh and the one missing Minnasota? they went to the conference finals last year..
So i chalk it up to a tough division...
