Ladies and gentlemen, it’s that time of year once again. Goodbye North Division. Goodbye arenas with no fans. Hello 2021. After another long Summer, the Toronto Maple Leafs are starting another season with very familiar dark clouds hanging over the franchise.
No cups since 1967 and no playoff series wins since 2004. One and done in the first round/play-in round five years straight. All of this seems very new with a roster looking largely similar minus the losses of longtime Toronto Maple Leafs Zach Hyman and Frederik Anderson. Other than those two, yes the core remains the same.
