How the Toronto Maple Leafs history timeline works

Every card marks a moment in Maple Leafs history, from name changes and arena openings to Cup wins and big signings, and a brief description sits under each title. Your job is to order them by the year each one happened. The game opens with one moment placed and dated. You slot each new card into the gap that seems right; a correct pick shows its year, and a wrong pick sends the card to its true spot at the cost of one of your three lives.

Toronto's history splits into two very different halves. The early stretch is crowded with championships that sit close together, so the descriptions, with their mentions of coaches, rivals and team names, matter a lot. The later cards are more spread out and lean on drafts, trades and single unforgettable nights, which can feel recent but are often older than you'd guess. Cards that sound like part of the same Cup run are the ones that cost lives.
