Leafs TV is a Canadian category 2 digital cable specialty channel in the province of Ontario. Leafs TV presents programming about the Toronto Maple Leafs hockey club - including games, classic games, pre and post-game shows and games featuring Leafs prospects from minor league teams such as the American Hockey League's Toronto Marlies. It is owned by Maple Leaf Sports & Entertainment Ltd. and launched in September of 2001. Due to NHL broadcast rules, the channel is not available in the Ottawa Valley or outside of the Toronto Maple Leafs 'Home Market'.

Leafs TV is in many respects similar to the YES Network in the United States, which is owned by the New York Yankees baseball team. Both networks are owned by the teams on which they focus. Leafs TV and YES are also both confined to the viewing regions immediately surrounding the home base of their team. They both also broadcast games of their teams' top minor league affiliates (the AHL's Toronto Marlies and the Class AAA Scranton/Wilkes-Barre Yankees of the International League).

[edit] Leafs TV HD

In November 2006, Maple Leaf Sports & Entertainment Ltd. launched an HD simulcast of Leafs TV.
