Craig Berube led the St. Louis Blues to the 2019 Stanley Cup championship. Thus, he was hired to tighten up the back end for a serious Toronto Stanley Cup run. So far, the NHL future odds results are mixed but somewhat hopeful. It was not because of total failure when the Toronto Maple Leafs parted ways with Sheldon Keefe. Keefe led the Maple Leafs to the Stanley Cup Playoffs in all four of his seasons behind the bench. However, the Maple Leafs advanced no further than the second round only one time with three first round exits.

Toronto Maple Leafs Team History
Overall, the Toronto Maple Leafs have won 13 Stanley Cup championships. But none since 1967. They were founded in 1917 as an “Original Six” franchise. Famous stars like Johnny Bower, Ace Bailey, Red Kelly, King Clancy, Tim Horton, George Armstrong, Dave Keon, and Darryl Sittler have won the Maple Leaf sweater.
The fact that the Leafs have not won a championship in the expansion era is a great embarrassment to a historical organization. Also it hurts a fan base that rubs many the wrong way as entitled and arrogant.
The Maple Leafs have used skill and offense to entertain and earn high seeds in the Stanley Cup Playoffs in the past several seasons. But the Maple Leafs showed their lack of toughness, grit, defense, and goaltending with annual playoff flops. Toronto fans always believe that this year will be different. And their money is plentiful enough to change the betting lines. As the most valuable franchise in the NHL, the Maple Leafs are the most popular team in Canada and on the board.
