No Red Kelly, Teeder Kennedy, Turk Broda, or Charlie Conacher?

 

[67Cup]

The greatest Leaf in terms of both team and personal accomplishment, was Syl Apps. And this was despite the fact that he lost a couple of seasons in the heart of his career when he joined up in World War II. And no, I am not old enough to remember him directly. But I certainly heard my father talk about him!

I love making teams like this. Basing it off of all time best? or all time favourite?

 

[Gabriel426]

Going to stick with players I watched live on TV or in person, as Leafs just have a very long and Rich history.
Started watching the Leafs in the Early 90s, as that’s the time my family moved from HK to Toronto.

Extremely tough exercise to compare different eras.

Red Kelly played both Center and Defenseman. For this to work best I put him on defence.

First three lines could all be considered 'first lines' with the 4th being a checking line. I believe it's a hall-of-famers-only club, sans Matthews, who I'm projecting.

D-pairs are all roughly equal, same with goalies.
