The league’s other Global Series will be played in Melbourne, Australia in late September, when the Los Angeles Kings will face off against the Arizona Coyotes on back-to-back days. The Ottawa Senators will also be in Stockholm for matchups against the Wild and Red Wings, but unfortunately for fans hoping to see the battle of Ontario in Scandinavia, they won’t face the Leafs. 19 at Stockholm’s Avicii Arena,” the team said in a press release. “Toronto will face the Detroit Red Wings on Nov. In mid-November, the Leafs will be one of six teams to participate in the 2023 NHL Global Series. 11 at home against the Montreal Canadiens. Toronto opens the season on Wednesday, Oct. The Leafs, along with the NHL’s other 31 teams, released their pre-season and regular season schedules on Tuesday. It could be argued that the team is deeper this year, with decent backup talent on defence and at forward with the Marlies, but if key players are lost for lengthy periods, say goodbye to the team's playoff chances.The Toronto Maple Leafs have announced their 2023-24 schedule, and for the first time ever, they’ll be playing a regular season game outside of North America when they visit Sweden in November.

As TSN's Maggie the Monkey demonstrates each year, the (relative) level of success hockey reporters have in predicting outcomes isn't exactly confidence inspiring. That doesn't, however, mean that a playoff berth is out of the question. Although a couple eighth seeded teams have made it all the way to the finals in the post-lockout NHL (Edmonton in 2006 and Philadelphia last year), few analysts are picking the Leafs to make the playoffs.
Less critical Leaf faithful will, as usual, proclaim that this is the year that the Cup drought is set to end, but based on last season's performance, that's little more than a pipe dream.
Although GM Brian Burke made a number of changes to his roster over the off-season, the question on most fans' minds is whether these will be enough to propel the team into the playoffs for the first time since the 2004-05 NHL lockout. The Toronto Maple Leafs 2010-11 regular season schedule begins tonight at home against the Montreal Canadiens.
