This was a really fun year to watch the Leafs. They had just moved from the Western to Eastern conference and were coming off several terrible years under coach Mike Murphy. Under Murphy, they played the neutral zone trap and were a terrible team to watch.
They hired Ken Dryden as GM and President and Pat Quinn and wound up leading the league in scoring this year and were a top 3 team in the conference after being expected to miss the playoffs.

I just watched a clip of him and Thomas knocking out the Senators in 2000.
Sorry who and what happened?
Berezin sadly passed away today at 52. Cause of death has not yet been reported.

He was an exciting player to watch. Always liked his energy.
I make this dumb joke with all due respect to one of my favourite Leafs growing up:
This is the first known instance of Sergei Berezin passing.
RIP
