- Historically, Conn Smythe transformed the post-war Leafs into a dynasty, while Cliff Fletcher modernized the department through bold trades, acquiring Sundin for Wendel Clark.

- With the loss of forward Fraser Minten to Boston, the team must avoid another season described as "an 18-wheeler going right off a cliff.
