That Don Cherry quote is about how bad teams can win meaningless games late in the season because there is no pressure. And I bet that's just him thinking back to his coaching days and games he hated to lose. Only Don could hold a 40-year grudge against teams that sucked.
Doesn't even apply to the current Leafs since they're not winning much, they don't have much talent, and there will be massive turnover in the roster over the next few years.
