Over the past five years, award-winning hockey author Kevin Shea connected with almost 500 members of the Toronto Maple Leafs family, including players, both past and present, coaches, general managers, trainers, broadcasters and celebrity fans. Each commented on what the Toronto Maple Leafs meant to them in ‘Voices in Blue and White: Pride and Passion for the Maple Leafs – Interviews With Those Who Wore the Uniform.’ From Don Cherry, who attended Toronto Maple Leafs training camps but never played with the team, to George Armstrong, Ron Ellis, Dave Keon and Borje Salming, each of whom played more than 1,000 games in Blue and White, the collection of interviews is astonishing. Players poured their hearts out about what wearing the Blue and White meant to them. Sprinkled among the alumni are celebrities who added their pride in being members of Leaf Nation, including comedians John Candy and Mike Myers, Olympic figure skater Kurt Browning, astronaut Chris Hadfield and recording artists Gordon Lightfoot, Anne Murray, Jim Cuddy (Blue Rodeo) and Rik Emmett (Triumph).‘Voices in Blue and White’ covers every era of the Toronto Maple Leafs, who debuted in February 1927, right through to Timothy Liljegren, who became the 1,000th player to pull on the Maple Leafs jersey in a regular season game on January 18, 2020, and on to recent additions to the team, T.J. Brodie, Wayne Simmonds and Joe Thornton.
