Gather round young Leafs fans and let me tell you a tale. It’s the story of the Maple Leafs making the playoffs....quiet down back there! It happened!
From 2000 until 2004 the Maple met four of the five years in the playoffs. There was anger in Daniel Alfredsson trying to murder Darcy Tucker. There was Darcy Tucker trying to leap into the Senators bench and fight the entire team. There was one of the greatest moments in modern Maple Leafs history: PING!
It was a glorious time.
