One month ago, the Toronto Marlies became the first men’s pro hockey team to win a championship since the Toronto Maple Leafs in 1967, adding to a wild year for sports teams at Exhibition Place; which also saw BMO Field residents Toronto Argonauts win the Grey Cup in November (also in Ottawa) and Toronto FC win the MLS Cup in December.
