The 1941β42 Toronto Maple Leafs season was the club's 25th season in the NHL. The Maple Leafs came off a very solid season in 1940β41, finishing with their second highest point total in club history, as they had a 28β14β6 record, earning 62 points, which was two fewer than the 1934β35 team accumulated; however, they lost to the Boston Bruins in the semi-finals, extending their Stanley Cup drought to nine seasons.
That drought was broken, however, when the Maple Leafs defeated the Detroit Red Wings in the 1942 Stanley Cup Finals, coming back after losing the first three games to win the Stanley Cup in seven games. They were the first team to come back from an 0β3 deficit to win a playoff series 4β3, and although it has happened in several playoff series since then, this remains the only time it has happened in a championship round.
Before Smythe left to take up training with his 30th Battery, he signed up three rookies to the Maple Leafs: Bob Goldham, Ernie Dickens and John McCreedy. Lorne Carr's contract was purchased from the New York Americans. The final addition to the team was Pete Langelle, who made the team after playing part-time in previous seasons. [1]
Toronto got off to a quick start, winning 14 of their first 19 games, battling with the Boston Bruins and New York Rangers for top spot in the NHL. A 4β7β3 slump in their next 14 games saw Toronto fall behind the Bruins and Rangers, however, the Leafs followed up their slump by posting a 7β1β0 record in their next 8 games, before dropping 5 of final 7 games to end the season. Toronto finished the year with a record of 27β18β3, recording 57 points, and finishing in second place in the NHL, three points behind the first place New York Rangers.
The Leafs offense was led by Syl Apps, who despite missing 10 games to injuries, finished tied for the club lead in points with 41. Gordie Drillon also finished with 41 points, and he scored a team best 23 goals, while Billy Taylor had a club high 26 assists. Sweeney Schriner managed to join Drillon in the 20 goal club, as he managed to get 20 goals and earned 36 points. Bucko McDonald led the Leafs blueline, recording 21 points, while Rudolph Kampman provided the team toughness, getting 67 penalty minutes.
In goal, Turk Broda got all the action, winning 27 games and posting a 2.76 GAA, along with earning 6 shutouts.
The Maple Leafs would open the playoffs against the best team in the league, the New York Rangers in a best of seven semi-final series. The Leafs opened the series with a victory at Maple Leaf Gardens with a solid 3β1 win, then managed to go up two games by defeating the Rangers 4β2 at Madison Square Garden. New York managed to take the third game, shutting out Toronto 3β0, however, the Leafs would go up 3β1 in the series, winning the fourth game 2β1 at home. New York staved off elimination in the fifth game, holding off Toronto for a 3β1 win, however, the Leafs ended the series in the sixth game, hanging on for a 3β2 victory, and a spot in the Stanley Cup finals.
Toronto's opponent in the 1942 Stanley Cup Finals was the Detroit Red Wings, who finished the year with a weak 19β25β4 record, ending up in fifth in the league. Detroit defeated the Montreal Canadiens and Boston Bruins to earn a spot in the finals. The Wings surprised Toronto in the series opener, winning the game 3β2, then Detroit managed to take the second game by a 4β2 score to go home with a 2β0 series lead. The Red Wings stayed hot, winning the third game at the Detroit Olympia 5β2, pushing the Leafs to the brink of elimination. Toronto responded in the fourth game, narrowly defeating Detroit 4β3 to cut the Wings series lead to 3β1. The Leafs returned home for the fifth game, and dominated Detroit, winning the game 9β3 and now were down 3β2 in the series. Turk Broda stole the show in the sixth game, shutting out Detroit 3β0 to even the series up, and the Leafs completed their miracle comeback with a 3β1 victory in the seventh and deciding game in front of a record breaking crowd of over 16,000 fans to win the Stanley Cup for the fourth time in club history, and first time since the 1931β32 season. This comeback was never repeated in a Stanley Cup finals since.
