It's almost the exact same for me (no kid yet). It's pretty crazy to think about.
I wasn't allowed to drive a car by myself the last time the Leafs were in the playoffs. Now I have a wife and a mortgage.
For you, there is almost an entire generation gap in there. You lived with your parents last time, now you provide a home for a kid of your own.

I think there's a lot of us just like this. We have to think of a name for our demographic.

approaching 2nd year uni, aka just finished first year uni, so 1 year out of grade 12 equivalent of "grade 13"
Grade 4 -> Grade 13, 9 years.
2004 was the last time the Leaf's were in the playoffs, it's now 2013, so it's been 9 years.

iPod's were just introduced
Also was in my last year of high school .. Since then I've graduated university, moved out west, been working in my career and have attained a professional designation in my field
And I hadn't met my best buddy who is also a die hard Leafs fan, we still haven't seen a playoff game together!

"What do you expect ? Its the Leafs"? **** that and people who talk like that. Bugs the hell out of me. Even when the Leafs were cup contenders each year people still talked like that
Anyways , last time the Leafs were in a playoffs I was finishing up grade 9 and about to turn 15 years old. Jeeze time flies

Pretty much this, getting married in 2 weeks, with the key differences being no kid and grad school instead of a mortgage.

I was finishing up grade 7. Now, I'll be graduating with a University Honours Degree...
Except I won't be watching the playoffs this year... 
I'll be working on a Remote Island off the coast of Nova Scotia as a field biologist :S

On a similar note, here are some TV shows that ended that year:
Friends
Fraser
Angel
The Man Show
Ricki Lake
Becker
Sex and the City
The Drew Carey Show
You read that right. All these shows had their series finale in same year as the last Leafs playoff appearance.

Was a 4th grade student living in Windsor after moving from Toronto now I'm a freshmen in college transferring to the University of Missouri this fall with the hopes to get a business admin degree and minor in sports management and apply for an internship with the St Louis Blues in the winter. We are getting old. Can you believe that Crosby was also drafted 8 years ago? Wow. Time flies.

I wasn't married and didn't have two kids. First time I'll get to gather around the TV with my family to watch a Leafs playoff game.

Yeah, it's my math. I was thinking they've missed 7 straight years but forgot to add the extra year for the lockout.
Also forgot high school only goes to 12 now and there is no more oac's (13).
Carry on.
Just to add. I had just graduated university and was living with a roommate.
I now have two extra roommates although one is my wife and the other two are my sons.
