New Coach

Add LEAFS new head coach, Craig Berube Yearious (talk) 21:32, 17 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Done, but not by me. Johnny Au (talk/contributions) 00:24, 18 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected edit request on 19 March 2025

This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request.

The divisional championships record in the infobox is incorrect. The Maple Leafs did not make it out of the first round in the 2020-2021 season. They were able to defeat the Tampa Bay Lightning in the 2022 - 2023 season. ThePlumOf (talk) 03:16, 19 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I have reverted what editor proposed in this request, because division title is a regular season achievement. – sbaio 03:51, 20 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Final verdict:

Not done; I have also clarified the hidden notes in the infobox that they are for the regular season standings rather than playoffs. Johnny Au (talk/contributions) 15:39, 20 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Grammatical error

In the section about Rivalries, about the Red Wings;

"they have played each other in more playoff series than any other two teams in NHL history except of the Bruins and Canadiens"

Should read "except for" Joox84 (talk) 11:00, 30 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
