The Toronto Maple Leafs next five games have huge potential to make-or-break this season, given the caliber of opposition.
Perhaps the only blessing is the fact that of these five games, four of them will be Toronto Maple Leafs home games, but equally this could be a curse if they go on a losing run.
After all, this is a fanbase that hasn’t shied away from booing the team already this season and a jersey toss is never too far away when you’re putting in the feeble efforts this team have thus far.
A 4-4-2 record for October isn’t great, but that record could look a lot better with a little luck, and it’s not like the team has played horribly.
