Toronto Maple Leafs
The Toronto Maple Leafs have had a mix of success and struggles in the 2024/25 season. Despite a strong start, their 2-3-2 road record highlights areas for improvement as they aim to break their 57-year Stanley Cup drought. While their offensive group is filled with talent, they currently sit 17th in the NHL for goals per game. However, their goaltenders have been solid with GAA's under 2.30. Mitch Marner and William Nylander have been leading the team in points, compensating for the absence of key players like Max Pacioretty and Auston Matthews. A recent defeat to the Ottawa Senators was a tough loss, with the team failing to score on 27 shots. Overall, the Maple Leafs are 9-6-2 for the season, ranked 16th in power rankings with strong defensive play but room for growth on offense.
