After their successful playoff run in the 1958-59 season and their surprising play in the post season, the now confident Leafs followed up with a second place finish in 1959-60. The Leafs managed another trip to the finals but this time lost in four straight games against the powerful Montreal Canadiens. Leaf coach Punch Imlach acknowledged after that defeat that his team was still not capable of dethroning the five-time Stanley Cup champion Habs.
