Maple Leafs fans have revealed their choice for the worst Leafs draft pick of all time, and it’s a player who never played a single NHL game.<\/p>\n

As the offseason rolls on for the Toronto Maple Leafs, it’s a natural time to look back, whether at the team’s greatest players, standout seasons, or notable draft picks.<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, not every draft memory is worth celebrating. One player has now been voted by fans as the worst draft pick in franchise history, and the verdict is clear.<\/p>\n

According to The Leafs Nation on X:<\/p>\n

“Tyler Biggs was voted as the worst draft pick in Maple Leafs history.<\/p>\n

Now it’s time to vote on who is the best enforcer in Maple Leafs history.”<\/p>\n

Biggs was selected 22nd overall in the 2011 NHL Draft by then-GM Brian Burke, who had a well-known preference for drafting big, physical players. At 6-foot-3, Biggs fit that mold perfectly. But, the pick turned out to be a massive miss.<\/p>\n

Afterward, he bounced around the ECHL, spending most of his time with the Kalamazoo Wings, before officially retiring in 2018-19.<\/p>\n
