Their last 11 cups in fact.
I'm glad they moved out of the Gardens BEFORE the place started to become problematically out dated, but I miss that place sometimes nonetheless. Some of my best live hockey memories were in that building.

Im going to Toronto Feb 1st - 3rd for a Leafs/Sens game. We plan on touring the first day, other then the HHOF, Skydome, Eiffel Tower, ACC, and possibly the Eaton Center, is there anything else worth looking at? How about supper at your house Amo?

That's really unpredictable. At any given time, you could be looking at temperatures in the low teens (celcius), or you could be looking at sub-zero temperatures with snow.
Based on recent years the most likely weather is somewhere in between those two: single digit temperatures, brisk but not snowy.

We are also looking to take in an OHL game, any advice on the nearest teams to Toronto, also the best way to get to these rinks plus any other info you can help us with?
Cheers Mark.

The closest OHL teams to Toronto are the Mississauga St Michale's Majors and The Brampton Battalion
The Majors play at The Hershey Center
The Battalion play at the Powerade Center
Both arenas are west of Toronto, about half hour to 45 minute drive from Downtown. Powerade is northwest of the Hershey Center.

Thanks for that, can you tell me the best way to get there with public transport and do these teams get big crowds?
Thanks.

OHL gets good attendance, I will look into some transit info for you. We're talking 3 different systems, Toronto, Mississauga and Brampton.
