That wasn’t always the case as the Leafs have won the second most cups all time, trailing only the Montreal Canadiens, who have hoisted the NHL’s top prize a whopping 24 times to the Maple Leafs 13 triumphs. While the Leafs appear to be close to getting back to their glory days, they have yet to break through to the third round of playoffs with the current lineup. There was a time when the Blue Jays were the toast of the town. As recently as a couple of sea- sons ago, the Jays were legitimate contenders with players such as MVP Josh Donaldson, sluggers Jose %DXWLVWDDQG(GZLQ(QFDUQDFLRQDQGRXWÀHOGHUVX- preme Kevin Pillar. They won a few post-season series — one ex- tremely memorable one with the Texas Rangers — but they were unable to get to the World Series as they did when they won all the marbles back in 1992 and 1993. The crowds were fantastic during those playoff runs but it seems like the newest kid on the block has garnered the largest following and is in position to take over the mantle as the top team in Toronto. Yes, while the Toronto Raptors have come a long way in their 25-year history, they seem to be more popular than the Leafs or the Jays right now, and it’s easy to see why. While the Leafs have been a fairly good team since they inked Mike Babcock as their head coach, they’ve gone through a pile of players, good and bad, over the last 50 years or so.
