The reasons behind the Maple Leafs’ March struggles, and the lessons and adjustments needed ahead of the playoffs

The team trudging through a stretch of mediocre hockey each March has become an annual tradition of sorts with this core.

  • March 2022: 8-5-1 (three-game win streak to end the month)
  • March 2023: 7-6-1
  • March 2024: 8-6-0 (two-game win streak to end the month)

That’s a lot of .500 hockey in March, which is better than their current 2-4-1 run of play in March 2025, but with eight games remaining this month, there is still plenty of time for this to change, for better or worse.
