The Toronto Maple Leafs have ten days off.

After a loss to the Blackhawks Saturday night, the Toronto Maple Leafs get a chance to recharge during the NHL’s all-star break / union mandated bi-week.

It is now at the point of the season where we relax and watch the best NHL players compete in the All-Star competitions as well as the All-Star game.

Here are the things the Leafs will need to do post-break in order to ensure a successful season.
