    Summary:

    100 years of love, celebration, heartbreak, and even parades. On December 19, 2017, the Toronto Maple Leafs officially turn 100. In the spirit of the centenary celebrations, Toronto and the Maple Leafs explores the city's relationship with its most beloved sports team. No matter how many times the Jays and Raptors make the playoffs, it's a Leafs game that still brings the city together on a cold Saturday night and fuels the talk shows all summer. But why are fans so absorbed by a team that has not won a Cup in 50 years?
