The 1966-67 Toronto Maple Leafs season saw the Leafs finish third in the NHL with a record of 32-27-11 for 75 points. Toronto defeated the first-place Chicago Black Hawks four games to two in the semi-finals before upending their arch-rivals, the Montreal Canadiens, in six games to win their eleventh Stanley Cup in franchise history. To date, this is the last time that the Maple Leafs have won the Stanley Cup.

Offseason

NHL Draft

Regular season

Five to a Crease

In 1966–67, the Maple Leafs had five goaltenders suit up during the regular season. Besides Bower and Sawchuk, the Maple Leafs employed Bruce Gamble, Al Smith, and Gary Smith. As Bower struggled with injuries, Al Smith actually sat on the bench for two of the last three Stanley Cup games. [ 67: The Maple Leafs, Their Sensational Victory, and the End of an Empire, p. 82, Damien Cox and Gord Stellick, ISBN number: 0–470–83400–5, Publisher: John Wiley and Sons ] For many inside the organization, the controversy was that Smith was on the bench, and not a proven player like Gamble. The concern was that if Sawchuk was injured, having Smith instead of Gamble would be a huge risk. The source of the controversy was that Bruce Gamble was competing for the Rochester Americans. Imlach was a part owner of the Americans, and was anxious to protect Rochester's roster at playoff time, as a means of protecting his investment.
