Believe or blow up?: Maple Leafs' season feels like last shot to get it right
Training camps bubble with giddy excitement and high hopes for the 82 winnable games. Maple Leafs' season feels like last shot to get it right.
Kyle Dubas is betting on his team to win the Eastern Conference. He has a lot of faith in his players and the team. The team's future is uncertain. The Maple Leafs have a franchise series drought for 19 years. Auston Matthews' contract expires on July 1. His future with the club is decided by how they perform in 2022-23. It's possible Duba will be negotiating a contract extension for Matthews. If they fail to make it to the playoffs, their coach Sheldon Keefe's job might be in jeopardy. They have the most talented forwards in the history of the franchise.
