Rick Vaive is the Greatest Player Left Un-Honored by the Toronto Maple Leafs.
The Toronto Maple Leafs began the great sports tradition of honoring players by retiring jersey numbers when they became the first professional sports team to do so by retiring #6 Ace Bailey in 1934.
In total, the Leafs have honored 19 players by retiring 13 numbers (some numbers were used by multiple players before they were retired).
