More than just a game.
In a time when legacy brands are challenged to stay relevant, the Toronto Maple Leafs set out to bridge generations by transforming the way fans experience the team. Faced with the need to connect with a younger, digital-native audience, the Leafs turned to a content strategy that redefined their brand identity from simply a hockey team to a community-driven, culturally resonant symbol of Canadian pride. This project centers on crafting emotional stories that transcend the game, humanize the players, and highlight the Leafs’ role in local communities. By leveraging platforms like Instagram, TikTok, Snapchat, and Reddit, we positioned the Leafs not only as champions on the ice but as champions of unity, history, and authentic connection. "More Than Just a Game" captures the heart of the Leafs and brings fans closer to the team in a way that feels deeply personal and undeniably Canadian.
