Toronto finished a disappointing last place in the Northeast Division in the 2007-2008 season, but major changes have been made that should bring the team success in the 2008-2009 season. GM John Ferguson Jr. has been replaced by Cliff Fletcher, and both head coach Paul Maurice and assistant coach Randy Ladouceur were fired and replaced with Ron Wilson as head coach and Tim Hunter and Rob Zettler as assistant coaches. Though it’s still up in the air if Mats Sundin will remain with the team, go elsewhere or even retire, the Maple Leafs have plenty of talent without him. Goaltender Vesa Toskala and veteran backup Curtis Joseph can be counted on to churn out solid performances, and a first line of Nik Antropov centering Alex Ponikarovsky and Alex Steen has the potential to score big. With the additions of Mikhail Grabovski, Nikolai Kulemin and Nik Hagman strengthening the second and third lines and Ryan Hollweg shoring up the checking line, the Toronto Maple Leafs will be a major threat in the Northeast Division in the 2008-2009 season. Since loyal Leafs’ fans pack the Air Canada Centre no matter how the team is doing, you’ll want to secure your spot in the stands right away.

The Maple Leafs play at the Air Canada Centre in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, and wear uniforms of blue and white. Formerly called the Toronto Arenas and the Toronto St. Patricks, Toronto is the oldest continuously operated franchise in the NHL. The team's name is derived from the traditional symbol of Canada, the maple leaf.
