The fact the Cavs left Toronto with a 136-106 win didn’t seem to justify the Raptors’ faith in […]

3 h. ago Toronto Maple Leafs record held by Mats Sundin for 28 years has been broken

If you've spent any time watching William Nylander playing this season for the Toronto Maple Leafs, it'd be pretty easy to make the case that he's the best he's ever looked.While he's 19 points of his career-high 98 points achieved last season with just eight games left for Toronto, one could argue that this has been Nylander's most dynamic offensive year yet.With a career-high 42 goals, which sit him second in the entire NHL behind Edmonton's Leon Draisaitl, Nylander has been a driving force behind Toronto's offence all season long.And it turns out that he actually quietly set a Leafs record last week, despite not much fanfare circling on it.With Nylander's 42nd of the season scored in a 6-5 shootout loss to the San Jose Sharks, he actually one-upped countryman Mats Sundin for the best single-season goal-scoring mark in Leafs history by a European player. Sundin topped out at 41 in the 1996-97 seasons, 2001-02 season topping a previous mark of 32 set by Czech winger Miroslav Frycer...

6 h. ago Downtown Toronto is still struggling despite some signs of life returning

Downtown Toronto has gradually recovered much of the vitality lost during the pandemic years, but the city centre is still struggling with a dearth of office workers even amid signs of life returning.New data in CBRE's just-released Q1 2025 Canada Office Figures report reveals that vacancy in downtown Toronto's gutted commercial market rebounded slightly during the first months of the year, but there's still a long way to go before things are even close to normal again.CBRE's figures show that Toronto fared better than other Canadian cities during the first quarter of 2025, with downtown office vacancy declining by 50 basis points to 18.5 per cent.While this leap marks the first substantial drop in vacancy recorded since the market took a nosedive in early 2020, there is still much ground to recover should vacancies ever drop to the figures seen in the before-times.Central Toronto's office market hit a record low vacancy rate of just 2.2 per cent in the fourth quarter of 2019.
