I'd say Toronto is the biggest disappointment only because they didn't prepare for this two years ago. I think they were among those teams that thought the new system would include a luxury tax, like baseball has, and they'd pay that and spend what they wanted. They never thought they'd be in a position where they couldn't just write checks and make everything OK.
