PPP Leafs writer Hardev argues that Toronto Maple Leafs fans should remain calm following a difficult game against the Buffalo Sabres. The writer notes that significant roster, coaching, and front-office turnover, along with the development of 18-year-old rookie Gavin McKenna, means the team needs time in October to adapt and learn from their mistakes.
