Toronto Maple Leafs 1959-1960

by Robert Grey Reynolds Jr

Overview

The Toronto Maple Leafs endured some very lean seasons in the 1950s before adding some key ingredients that enable the National Hockey League team to become a bonafide contender for the Stanley Cup championship. Defenceman Tim Horton became a regular by 1952 and Frank Mahovlich, Bob Pulford, and Dave Keon were added somewhat later. The 1958-1959 had gone further than their predecessors although they lost one sidedly to the Montreal Canadiens in the cup finals. The Maple Leafs also had a reliable veteran goalie in Johnny Bower who came along after Harry Lumley was traded to the Boston Bruins. My e-book describes particular games played by Toronto in the Original 6 team NHL that existed until expansion came along in 1967.
