Will raycroft also enjoy the winning of the cup, if the leafs win the cup?

They will win within 3 years. The Leafs have figured out that it takes good draft picks to build a team. Over the last 4 years they have drafted well and have not traded away the future. Last year John Ferguson Jr. did not bow to the pressure to sign a bunch of old has-beens at trade deadline. They kept the team as is and even though they did not make the playoffs the Leaf fans that have stuck with the team though good and bad realize that any team can not win every year and if the future looks better that is a good thing.
Sundin will sip from the Stanley Cup playing for the Leafs before he retires and Raycroft will still be there and both will be full of shits and giggles.
In response to turdtapper. The Leafs will win before your favourite team, the San Francisco 69'ers.

The Leafs will not win the Stanley Cup with Mats Sundin. When the year 2017 comes around the Leafs will have a ceremony for the last Stanley Cup win 50 years ago.

Let's assume Sundin has 5 years left, counting this season (he's now 36)
Toronto isn't winning the Cup this year. Their odds for next year aren't looking especially good either.
Assuming he remains a leaf, I'd give Mats a 10% chance at best of ever winning the Cup.

I don't think the leafs will ever win a cup with Mats Sundin on the team, and I think it will probably be another 40 years before they make the cup finals (as the last time they made the finals was when they won back in 1967)

I am thinking that they will never win a stanley cup with Mats Sundin and with Raycroft.

I was actually born on the day they won the cup,
(team of old guys in 1967 youngest player was 22, had more guys in their late 30's and early 40's)
I think it will take my 80th birthday before they win another, and Sundin may still be there waiting to hoist it.

I saw this question and i just wanted to point something out to all you hockey fans out there to enlighten you all on a fact...
No team with a captain from outside of North America has EVER won the stanley cup.
In fact their have only been a couple american captains, but most have been canadian.
i don't think sundin will be the first.
Hopefully Kimmo Timmonen will this year

Not until management (as in Ferguson and higher...including the Ontario Teacher's Pension who owns most of the Leafs' shares) realizes that it's much more fun to actually build a championship team than to just collect money and set status quos in this city. Oh, who am I kidding? That will never happen because most of these people live in Toronto; we're all in this cesspool.
Go Leafs anyways...

I see them making the playoffs in the subsequent couple of years. Given a common progression, they could possibly project for the Cup interior 8-10, whether it is confusing to inform. The group has one in all those checklist for futility it is going to take an exceptionally solid group for it slow until eventually now they are going to be a risk.

that's a trick question: they'll never win the Stanley Cup.
