Maple Leafs playoff records: every all-time leader in goals, points and games

Nothing in this record book is moving. Toronto failed to reach the playoffs in 2026 for the first time since 2016, which ended a run of nine straight appearances, so every figure below is final until the spring of 2027.

The club has played 74 postseasons since 1917 and won 13 Stanley Cups, the last of them in 1967. Its all-time playoff record is 279 wins and 308 defeats. And the man at the top of two of the five lists below played fewer than half as many playoff games as the man in second place.

Who has the most playoff points in Maple Leafs history?

Doug Gilmour, with 77 in 52 games.

Gilmour’s 77 came almost entirely from two springs. Sundin needed 77 games to reach 70 points; Gilmour needed 52 to reach 77.

The three names on 60 are listed as a tie because the two compilations we used rank them differently against each other, which is a tiebreak rule rather than a disagreement about the number.

Who has played the most playoff games for the Maple Leafs?

George Armstrong, with 110, and the top of this list belongs almost entirely to the Stanley Cup teams.

Nine of those ten played before 1967. The only exception is Tie Domi, which tells you most of what there is to know about Toronto’s postseason history since the last Cup.

Who has scored the most playoff goals for the Maple Leafs?

Wendel Clark, with 34.

Clark scored his 34 in 79 games, a better rate than anyone above 20 goals on the list. He is also the player this club’s supporters would have picked, which does not happen often with a record book. His other reputation is covered in our account of the four times he fought Bob Probert.

The assist list has a different name at the top: Gilmour again, with 60, ahead of Marner on 50, Sittler on 40, and Sundin and Red Kelly on 38.

Who holds the Maple Leafs playoff goaltending records?

Turk Broda, on every measure that matters, from a career that spanned two years of war service.

Broda’s 60 playoff wins came in an era of shorter rounds, which makes them harder to accumulate rather than easier. Behind him, the list reads Bower 35 wins, Curtis Joseph 32, and Felix Potvin 25.

What is the best single postseason by a Maple Leaf?

Doug Gilmour in 1992-93: 21 games, 10 goals, 25 assists, 35 points. Both the points and the assists are club records for one postseason, and Gilmour owns second place as well with his 28 points the following spring.

All three belong to the same spring, when Toronto played 21 games across three seven-game series and lost in the third of them. Our record of every playoff exit since 1967 has that one in its proper place.

What is the best single playoff game by a Maple Leaf?

Darryl Sittler, 22 April 1976 against Philadelphia: five goals in an 8-5 win, in game six of a series Toronto went on to lose in seven. He added an assist, so his six points are the club’s single-game playoff record too.

Nobody has scored five in a Leafs playoff game since. Lanny McDonald managed four in 1977, Ted Kennedy four in 1948, and Babe Dye four in 1922, when the club was still called the Toronto St. Patricks.

Are any current Maple Leafs on these lists?

One, properly. Auston Matthews is the only active Leaf inside the top ten of more than one category, and he is in three: fifth in goals, tenth in assists, and tenth in points. William Nylander is level fifth in goals and just outside the top ten in points.

Morgan Rielly is in none of them, with 47 points from 70 games.

And then there is Mitch Marner, second in club history in playoff assists and fifth in points, who left for Vegas in a sign-and-trade. His numbers are frozen where they are, which means the second name on Toronto’s all-time playoff assist list belongs to a player who will not add to it. Watching the Leafs in 2026-27 means watching whether anyone else gets near.

Where does this data come from?

The franchise totals, the Cup years and the all-time playoff record come from Hockey-Reference’s franchise history page.
