Maple Leafs Annual 2010-2011

This is Maple Street Press's Maple Leafs Annual 2010-2011. It is a season preview magazine that focuses specifically on the Toronto Maple Leafs. It will be available on store shelves right across Canada soon. You can pre-order your copy here.

For the second year in a row I have had the great pleasure of contributing to the magazine. This year I have taken a look back at the most significant trades in the Maple Leafs history. From King Clancy to Teeder Kennedy to Frank Mahovlich to Darryl Sittler to Doug Gilmour to Wendel Clark, I look at how every distinct era in Leafs history is defined by a major trade.

Also contributing to this year's edition are some big names I am happy to call colleagues - Kevin Shea, Greg Wyshynski, James Mirtle, and Dirk Hoag amongst others.

So be sure to watch for Maple Leafs Annual 2010-2011 hitting magazine racks near you soon.
