There is no spelling error. The team is believed to be named after the Maple Leaf regiment in World War I. Thus, it is considered a proper noun.
For example: The last name "Wolf."
If you were to refer to a family with that last name, you would not refer to them as "Wolves" but rather "Wolfs." The same principle applies in the Leafs case.
