The Greatest Toronto Maple Leafs Players From A-Z

The history of the Toronto Maple Leafs is filled with greatness from A-Z.

From as early as 1917, the Toronto Maple Leafs have seen a number of great players wear the Blue-and-White.

Although the team hasn’t won a championship since 1967, there have been multiple Hall-of-Famer’s play for the Leafs from then until now.

The modern-day fan may not be as familiar with a name like Turk Broda or Charlie Conacher, but they’ve definitely heard about them.

They may not know which way they shot or how many goals or saves they had each season, but they respect the history and understand how important they were the Leafs franchise.

For today’s sports fan, they think that every thing that happens today is the greatest. What I mean by that comment is that every headline will read: “Greatest comeback in team history?” or “Greatest Save of All-Time?”

Instead of appreciating it and living in the moment, everything is a competition that it has to be the greatest thing that has ever happened in sports history.

Even the Leafs comeback against the Blue Jackets in Game 4 of the qualifying series is looked at as the greatest comeback in team history. Although it may actually be the best comeback based on the scenario, we jump to say that it’s the best thing that’s ever happened without really looking at history.

Recency bias was a tough thing to fight during this exercise, but I tried my best to be neutral.

Here are the top Toronto Maple Leafs players of all-time from A-Z (last name only).
