Conn Smythe, a coach from the area took control of the team around 1927 and eventually the team was renamed after The Maple Leaf Regiment, a group of Canadian soldiers who were in service during World War I.
Thus, this plural form of "leaf" is correct.

1 - the name of the arena in which they original played (the Maple Leaf Gardens)

2 - the national symbol, the (singular) Maple Leaf (a singular, proper noun).
Further, the pluralization applies to the team as a whole, not the leaves individually.
Does that make it any clearer?
