The Leafs are one of the oldest and most successful teams in the National Hockey League (NHL) having been champions 13 times, second only to the Montreal Canadiens’ 24 titles. They will be hoping for a 7th consecutive playoff appearance, a feat they haven’t achieved for over 40 years. The 2021-22 season saw Toronto set franchise records for wins and points, and Auston Matthews – who is returning this season – became the first Toronto player in a decade to reach 60 goals. The team is excited to welcome 2-time Stanley Cup champion and ex-Ottawa Senators goaltender Matt Murray this season.

How to Get Cheap Tickets
Toronto Maple Leafs ticket prices are dynamic and similar ticket types can vary depending on who they are playing, the day of the week (weekends are usually more expensive), and the stage of the league.

In some cases, there are last-minute bargains to be found for less in-demand games, however, by waiting you risk prices going up or tickets selling out. Koobit compares prices from primary and secondary sellers to help you find the right tickets for you at the best price.
