Toronto Maple Leafs Team Record, Trades, Team Analysis, and NHL Prediction 2024-25

If you’re a Maple Leafs fan, you’ve hit the jackpot, eh? This is the spot for Toronto Maple Leafs standings, odds, key stats, and matchups that matter. The season’s a marathon and the games fly by, but don’t worry; you’re covered. This is where all the Leafs’ action comes together.

Toronto Maple Leafs Record – Last Season Recap

Toronto finished last season (2023-24) with a slightly worse record than the previous one (2022-23). The Maple Leafs also fell short in the outright NHL odds by finishing below their projected point total, third in the Atlantic Division, and another first-round playoffs exit at the hands of the Boston Bruins. Again. Still, Toronto was the second-highest-scoring team.

Final 2023-24 Record:

The Toronto Maple Leafs’ record in 2023-24 fell short of expectations. Their 102 points were below the 105.5 projected regular-season points from the NHL lines. It’s also nine points fewer than the previous season’s 111. Toronto exited the playoffs in the first round for the seventh time in eight seasons.

Top Performers:

Auston Matthews had another Hart Trophy-worthy season, finishing with a league-leading 69 goals along with 107 points. William Nylander also stepped up and finished with a career-high 98 points. Mitchell Marner rounded out Toronto’s top-three scorers with 85 points in 69 games.

Toronto Maple Leafs Trades (Additions and Subtractions)

The Toronto Maple Leafs’ trades were not significant enough to make most NHL news in 2024. But the team did make many notable acquisitions namely in defense and goal. Will this save Toronto from its annual playoff shortcomings? One can only wait and see.

Key Departures:

  • F Tyler Bertuzzi
  • F Joel Edmundson
  • D T.J. Brodie
  • G Ilya Samsonov

Key Additions:

  • F Max Pacioretty
  • D Oliver Ekman-Larsson
  • D Jani Hakanpaa
  • D Christopher Tanev
  • G Anthony Stolarz

Most of Toronto’s moves were toward the defensive side. This was logical as Toronto finished 19th in goals against and 23rd in penalty killing and save percentage. If these moves improve Toronto’s ability to stop opponents, the Leafs may just make a deeper playoff run. Maybe.

Maple Leafs Prediction for the 2024-25 NHL Season

Toronto is once again expected to be a strong playoff contender given their NHL playoff odds. The sportsbook listed the Leafs with a 102.5 projected point total. But the real question for the fans and bettors is if Toronto can win a playoff series.

Regular Season Wins Prediction

Toronto finished with a 46-26-10 record in 2023-24, which is down from 50-21-11 from 2022-23. This season, it is projected with 102.5 points, which is around where Toronto finished last season. The oddsmakers are bearish on Toronto improving given its overall roster moves and the state of the Eastern Conference.

Playoff Chances

Toronto should have a strong chance to make the Stanley Cup Playoffs again. The Leafs have made the postseason every year since the 2016-17 season. Getting here is an easy Toronto Maple Leafs prediction. Succeeding here is where the bold takes lie.

Key Players to Watch

Everyone can expect Toronto’s main three forwards to produce. Pencil in Matthews for 50+ goals, Nylander for 90+, and Marner for a point per game. The x-factor for this team lies in goal with either Stolarz, the new acquisition, or Joseph Woll. The former has mainly been a backup but has solid NHL stats while the latter can’t avoid injuries.

Coaching Analysis

Sheldon Keefe is out. Craig Berube is in. The new head coach is notable for leading the St. Louis Blues to an improbable Stanley Cup victory during the 2018-19 season. The Blues were last in the Western Conference to start 2019 but went on a run and won the cup at longshot odds. Toronto is hoping Berube has some of that magic left and can lead Toronto over the hump.
