The Toronto Maple Leafs are a professional ice hockey team based in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, founded in 1917 as one of the founding members of the National Hockey League, adopting its current name in 1927, and one of the most valuable and widely supported franchises in the NHL, having won multiple Stanley Cup championships across its history, though none since 1967, the longest active championship drought of any of the league's Original Six franchises. Playing in blue and white, the team plays at Scotiabank Arena and remains, despite its long title drought, one of the most commercially significant and closely followed franchises in professional hockey given Toronto's status as one of the sport's largest media markets.
