| Pos | Role | Name |
| C | 1 | Auston Matthews  ActiveAuston Matthews has the top-selling jersey in the NHL this season. Matthews, who wears number 34 because it's the number his father wore in college (basketball and baseball), finished ahead of Penguins forward Sidney Crosby and Oilers forward Connor McDavid. "It’s not really a priority, but it’s pretty cool," Matthews said Friday when told of his new ranking. "We have unbelievable fans here and every time we play, it’s awesome to see your jersey in the stands. That’s definitely something I don’t take for granted." Apr 21 |
| 2 | Nazem Kadri ActiveNazem Kadri spoke to the media for the first time since being suspended by the NHL's Department of Player Safety last week. Even though he's finished serving his three-game suspension, Kadri admitted that he though the suspension was harsh. "I was not expecting that," Kadri said. "That particular play, I just felt like a liberty had been taken on Mitch (Marner) and I’m always going to stand up for my teammates and stand up for myself. That part is not going to change about me. Was it worthy of a suspension? I definitely think so. But I think the three games is definitely a little harsh." The Leafs find themselves down 3-1 in this best-of-seven series, so they'll have to dig deep in Boston on Saturday night to extend this to Game 6. Apr 21 |
| 3 | Tyler Bozak ActiveTyler Bozak found the back of the net in Toronto's 7-3 loss to Boston on Saturday night in Game 2 of their first-round series. Bozak's goal helped the Leafs outscore Boston 2-1 during the second period, but it came after the Bruins had already established a 5-1 lead. Bozak has four goals and seven points in 13 career postseason outings. Apr 15 |
| 4 | Tomas Plekanec ActiveTomas Plekanec scored a goal during Thursday's 3-1 loss to the Boston Bruins. Mitch Marner's pass towards Patrick Marleau was a little out of reach, but Plekanec was able to pick up the puck in the slot before burying it past Bruins goalie Tuukka Rask to tie the game at one. Unfortunately for the Leafs, that's the only goal they were able to muster in Game 4. Plekanec finished the night with an even rating and one shot on goal in 15:09 of ice time. The 35-year-old now has one goal and one assist in four games this postseason. The loss pushes the Maple Leafs to the brink of elimination, as they now trail this best-of-seven series 3-1. Game 5 will be played in Boston on Saturday night. Apr 19 |
| 5 | Dominic Moore ActiveDominic Moore is on Toronto's fourth line for the morning skate. Moore is poised to play in his first game since Mar. 30 due to Nazem Kadri's suspension and an injury to Leo Komarov. He was flanked by Andreas Johnsson and Kasperi Kapanen, while Tomas Plekanec moved up to the second line between Mitch Marner and Patrick Marleau. Apr 16 |
| LW | 1 | James van Riemsdyk ActiveJames van Riemsdyk opened the scoring Monday night against Boston with a power-play goal late in the first period. Van Riemsdyk has found the back of the net on the man advantage in two straight playoff games. The Leafs took Game 3 by a score of 4-2. Apr 17 |
| 2 | Patrick Marleau ActivePatrick Marleau scored a pair of goals in Monday's 4-2 win over the Boston Bruins. Marleau gave the Leafs a 2-1 lead 55 seconds after Boston tied the game at one early in the second frame. The veteran then added his second tally of the night with under four minutes remaining in regulation to make it 4-2 for his team. Marleau finished the night with a plus-2 rating, two penalty minutes, two shots on goal and four hits in 15:44 of ice time. The 38-year-old became the oldest player in team history to score in the playoffs at 38 years and 213 days (Norm Ullman previously owned that record). He now has two goals in three games this postseason. The Maple Leafs trail the best-of-seven series 2-1. They'll host Game 4 on Thursday night. Apr 16 |
| 3 | Zach Hyman ActiveZach Hyman scored the only goal for the Toronto Maple Leafs in their Game 1 loss to the Boston Bruins. Hyman showed some nice speed and hustle to beat David Krejci to the loose puck before putting a move on Tuukka Rask to tie the game at one with just over three minutes left in the first period. Unfortunately for the Maple Leafs, they couldn't muster up much of anything else offensively. The Leafs will need to get their top lines going for Game 2 and could be without Nazem Kadri who will likely be facing a suspension after hitting Tommy Wingels from behind during the final period. Connor Brown and Morgan Rielly got the assists on Toronto's only goal. Apr 12 |
| 4 | Matt Martin ActiveMatt Martin will be a healthy scratch in Game 3 against the Boston Bruins on Monday night. Martin has been scratched in 14 of Toronto's last 15 games dating back to the regular season. He had three goals and 12 points in 50 games this season. The Leafs are making one change to their lineup, as Leo Komarov (lower body) will sit. He'll be replaced by Dominic Moore. Josh Leivo and Connor Carrick will also watch the game from the press box.

| 6 | Kasperi Kapanen ActiveKasperi Kapanen will be a healthy scratch in Monday's game against the Buffalo Sabres. Kapanen has seven goals and two assists in 36 games this season. The 21-year-old has been a regular in the Leafs lineup, but he's played under 10 minutes in each of his last three outings. Leo Komarov, Josh Leivo and Dominic Moore will also watch the game from the press box. Apr 2 |
| 7 | Joffrey Lupul  I.L.Joffrey Lupul has failed his second physical and can be placed on long-term injured reserve. The NHL confirmed the initial diagnosis after Lupul failed his team physical before training camp. Toronto will place Lupul ($5.25 million) and Nathan Horton ($5.3 million) on LTIR once the season starts for some cap relief. Lupul hasn't played for the Leafs since February 2016. Oct 3 |
| RW | 1 | William Nylander ActiveWilliam Nylander is slated to start Game 5 alongside Tomas Plekanec and Andreas Johnsson. Connor Brown will play alongside Auston Matthews instead. "I think it's good," said Nylander. "We haven't been able to produce the way we wanted to so I think it's a good change and I think it could be a fresh start for us today." He only has one assist through four games against Boston in the first round of the playoffs. Apr 21 |
| 2 | Mitch Marner ActiveMitch Marner earned an assist in Toronto's 3-1 loss to Boston in Game 4. Marner has collected one goal and four assists over a three-game playoff point streak.

| 5 | Andreas Johnsson ActiveAndreas Johnsson appears to be OK after he was taken down by Brad Marchand on Monday night. Johnsson went to the locker room briefly, but he managed to return to the match. Coach Mike Babcock said Tuesday that Johnsson wasn't experiencing any ill effects. Apr 17 |
| 6 | Nathan Horton I.L.Nathan Horton has been left off Toronto's training camp roster after failing his physical, he is also not with the team. Horton, who suffers from a degenerative back condition that has prevented him from playing since the 2013-14 season, is expected to be placed on long-term injury reserve once the regular season begins. The move will relieve $5.3M of cap space, which will be useful for the Maple Leafs as they're currently just $385K below the ceiling. Sep 17 |
| D | 1 | Morgan Rielly ActiveMorgan Rielly contributed two assists in Toronto's 4-2 win over Boston in Game 3. Rielly has earned at least one point in each game against Boston in the playoffs.
