1968-69 Season
Off-season

Brian Glennie became Orr's new defense partner this season. Orr put up 2+5 in 7 games.
Regular Season
Despite a 39-25-12 the Leafs missed the playoffs, 5th place once again. The fans are outraged by the playoff system, with a team like the 18-47-11 Oakland Seals in the mix. Bobby Orr himself had a record setting season, with 100 points to lead the team (18+82). Unger, Ellis, and Mahovlich formed a formidable first line with 80+ points each.
Orr got his first Norris, and another Hart.
Playoffs
Detroit beats St. Louis in 6 games.
