Baby Leafs May come to Toronto earlier than planned

Perhaps this is some sort of preview for the hockey fans in Toronto, but it looks like if things go unsettled for the American Hockey League opening round of the playoffs, the St. John's Maple Leafs may come to finish their series at the Air Canada Center.

If necessary, the Leafs find themselves in a Game 7 against the Manitoba Moose, they have been told that the Mile One Staduim that they normally play in was already booked with a trade show on April 30th.

It's already been determined that the "lame duck" franchise is already going to move to Toronto permanently next season, but become the Marlies. It would be interesting to see how the franchise plays out this season, weather or not if it will go out in style in front of their Newfoudland fans.
