Description

The Maple Leaf Gardens – home to some of Toronto’s most joyful victories and agonizing defeats. There are new players now at the Gardens including the Toronto Gay Hockey Association.


Shane Hobson and Ben Baby grew up gay in small-town Ontario. They tell Mary Wiens why it’s a victory every time they carry their hockey bags through the front doors of the former Maple Leaf Gardens.
