The Toronto Maple Leafs are one of the oldest hockey teams in NHL history, but it’s time for some fresh franchises.
In recent years, we’ve already seen how much of an impact a new franchise brings to the NHL and to that city.
For example, when Las Vegas arrived, they made the Stanley Cup Finals in their first year of existence and their in-game experience is one of the best in the league. Many thought that nobody would show up to a game in Vegas, but boy, were they ever wrong.
The same thing can be said about Winnipeg.
