But at the same time, the Flames have had...

Maple Leafs Must Name Matthews or Tavares Captain

Maple Leafs Must Name Matthews or Tavares Captain

August 28th, 2019 There may not be an NHL regulation that states the Toronto Maple Leafs must name a captain before the 2018-19 season.

Maple Leafs' Recent Dealings With the Senators

September 16th, 2018 Bitter rivals for years and regular opponents in the playoffs during the early 2000s, it’s understandable that the Toronto Maple Leafs and Ottawa Senators have rarely come to terms when it comes to trades.
