When where the Toronto maple leafs founded?
they were originally called the Toronto Pro Hockey Club, in 1908-1909, then, they were the Toronto Blueshirts from 1912-1918, then came the Arenas from 1918-1919, then the St. Patricks from 1919-1927, and since then they have been the leafs. So the toronto hockey franchise started in 1908, but they weren’t the leafs until 1927.
