Latest Maple Leafs News & Key Developments
It's most definitely been an up-and-down year for the boys in blue, with long stretches of both exceptional play and subpar performance. They're an extremely streaky group. They certainly need to tighten things up at the blue line. And sometimes, it seems like they're just as likely to cough up the puck in front of the net as to dazzle you with tic-tac-toe passing.
But through it all, the Leafs should make the playoffs and, at the very least, be a tough out for any team facing them. Let's take a look back at some of the key dates (past and future) that got the Maple Leafs to this point...
- 📆 6/24/2016 The Leafs draft center Auston Matthews with the first overall pick in the NHL entry draft.
- 📆 12/1/2017 William Nylander inks a six-year deal with Toronto, after a drawn-out negotiation process.
- 📆 7/1/2018 The Leafs sign hometown favorite John Tavares away from the New York Islanders, agreeing to a seven-year deal.
- 📆 4/3/2023 The Maple Leafs win their first-round series against the Tampa Bay Lightning, marking the first time they reached the second round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs since 2004.
- 📆 5/12/2023 The Blueshirts bow out of the NHL Playoffs, losing in five games to eventual Stanley Cup Finals runner-up, the Florida Panthers. (The Vegas Golden Knights won the Cup.)
- 📆 8/9/2023 It may not have seemed like a headline-worthy move at the time, but the Leafs signed veteran goalie Martin Jones to a one-year deal to serve as a backup. He'll be pressed into starting duties in December, due to multiple injuries and underperformance.
- 📆 10/11/2023 The puck is dropped on the 107th season of Maple Leafs hockey, with an exciting 6-5 shootout win against the Montreal Canadiens. The high-scoring affair hints at the type of season to come.
- 📆 12/16/2023 Fill-in backstop Martin Jones and the Leafs blank the Pittsburgh Penguins 7-0 for one of the best all-around results of the campaign.
- 📆 2/2/2024 NHL All-Star Game festivities kick off in Toronto, the ninth overall time the city has hosted the event. The Canadian NHL teams haven't hosted the game since 2012.

Key Contributors on the Maple Leafs Roster
If the Leafs are going to make a real run at the Stanley Cup, they're going to need well-known, offensive headliners like Auston Matthews, John Tavares and William Nylander to play a pivotal part. But they'll also need grinders like the to-this-point underperforming Tyler Bertuzzi and Max Domi to start chipping in with more regularity. And if embattled goaltender Ilya Samsonov can start playing up to his potential, you might see the Leafs Stanley Cup odds start to get a little shorter.
Expect the Maple Leafs to be buyers at the trade deadline, too. They'll be seeking to add one or more experienced defensemen to the roster to shore up what's been a leaky blue-line corps.
