Leafs Nation
I'm guessing the NHL will announce shortly that Leafs will be the host of an Outdoor game on Jan 1st, 2017 for their centennial year.
Outdoor games bring in huge fan interest and allows a team to promote its past with a legends game of Leafs past (Sittler, Gilmour, Clark) and their future with a Marlies game (Nylander etc) along with the Leafs organization present.
That would be a far more appealing to MLSE then hosting the entry draft or All-Star game.
Sorry Mess, I don't think it would. Most people (myself included) are sick of the outdoor games. There's so many now they aren't even special anymore.
