'All teams go through struggles every year, but you’re very exposed in a market like Toronto.' Former MapleLeafs captain Mats Sundin gave his thoughts on the team's struggles and how the market impacts the pressure the players face.

TORONTO — Mats Sundin knows what life’s like when things are going well for the Maple Leafs.But when the shoe’s on the other foot — like it is for Toronto’s current roster — there’s also nowhere to hide.

"If you have character guys … you’ll find a way," said Sundin, who captained the Leafs for 11 seasons and owns the franchise record for goals and points. "You go through tough spurts in a season with all teams, but it’s a little bit tougher ." "That’s just life playing here," Wendel Clark, another former Leafs captain, said of the spotlight in hockey’s biggest fishbowl. "The worst pressure is what everybody puts on themselves.Former Leafs winger Mike Gartner said he feels for the current roster — one that underwent a lot of off-season change.

Mats Sundin on Toronto Maple Leafs' struggles: 'You're very exposed in a market like Toronto' - TSN.caMats Sundin knows what life's like when things are going well for the Maple Leafs. Players feel as if they're on top of the world, seemingly unable to do any wrong. But when the shoe's on the other foot — like it is for Toronto's current roster — there's also nowhere to hide. It is a pressure environment so why bring a guy like Dubas in with no NHL experience to manage the Leafs when they have the most legitimate chance of winning a cup in over 50 years? They won't make the playoffs this year.
