The Toronto Maple Leafs return to the Atlantic Division after their COVID enforced Canadian Only Party in the North.
Looking at the rest of the teams they will be re-joining, there is no denying the team the Toronto Maple Leafs had last season looked better on paper than the one entering this 2021/22 season.
Yet the difference between the two versions of the Toronto Maple Leafs might prove to help them succeed this year. Last year’s Leafs were built around four star forwards, and three star defenseman, and this year is more or less going to be the same.
