Playing career
In the 2008 OHL Draft, Toffoli was drafted seventh overall by the Ottawa 67's. Toffoli was named to the First All-Rookie Team at the end of his rookie season.
Toffoli was drafted 169th overall by Traktor Chelyabinsk in the 2010 KHL Draft but chose not to remain in the OHL. In the 2010 NHL Entry Draft, he was drafted 47th overall by the Los Angeles Kings.
On April 19, 2011, Toffoli signed a three-year entry-level deal with the Kings. He spent his time with the 67's before joining the Manchester Monarchs in the American Hockey League to begin his professional career.
Toffoli made his NHL debut on March 16, 2013 over the San Jose Sharks 5–2. In his second NHL game against goaltender Mike Smith in a 4–0 victory over the Phoenix Coyotes on March 18, 2013, Toffoli scored his first NHL goal on goaltender Mike Smith in his second NHL game on March 18, 2013. In the 2012–13 season, Toffoli was selected the recipient of the AHL's Dudley "Red" Garrett Memorial Award for rookie of the year. He played 28 goals and 20 assists (48 points) in 55 AHL games for Manchester during the season, and Toffoli led all rookies in goals, short-handed goals (3), and plus-minus (+20).
Toffoli made his Stanley Cup playoff debut against the St. Louis Blues on May 8, 2013 in Game 5 of the Western Conference Quarterfinals, knocking out scratched Keaton Ellerby in the Kings' lineup.
To kick off the 2013-2014 season, the Kings drafted Toffoli to their AHL team in Manchester. Los Angeles defeated the Vancouver Canucks 5–1 on November 9, his third game since being called back to the NHL with Manchester linemate Linden Vey, scoring two goals and one assist. Toffoli then put on another two-goal game against the St. Louis Blues on December 2 in a 3–2 Kings victory. His fourth game in a row since being recalled from the Monarchs was game-winning. Toffoli was a key participant in the playoffs and went on to win a Stanley Cup.
Toffoli appeared on a line dubbed "That 70s Line" during the 2014-2015 season, with Jeff Carter and Tanner Pearson on the majority of the season, with both three surviving numbers in the 70s. Toffoli was diagnosed with mononucleosis during the 2015–15 season, causing him to miss six games before returning to the lineup against the Chicago Blackhawks on January 31. In the Kings' 5–2 victory over the Calgary Flames on February 12, he scored his first NHL hat-trick.
Toffoli sustained a left knee injury in the 2016-2017 NHL season, causing him to miss 19 games. On April 25, he underwent successful surgery. The Kings announced Toffoli to a three-year, $13.8 million contract extension on June 7, 2017, with an annual average of $4.6 million.
When the Kings defeated the Colorado Avalanche 3-1 during the 2020 NHL Stadium Series, Toffoli became the first player in league history to record a hat-trick in an outdoor game. The game was played at Falcon Stadium in Colorado Springs, Colorado.
Toffoli was traded by the Kings to the Vancouver Canucks in exchange for Tim Schaller, a 2020 second-round pick, and a 2022 conditional pick in the final season of his deal. Together with J.T., Toffoli and the Canucks' top line had a blast. Miller and Elias Pettersson were both able to score in ten games, including six goals. Toffoli would have a high-ankle sprain in Game 1 of the qualifying series against the Minnesota Wild when the NHL season returned to the playoffs. In time for Game 2 of the second-round series against the Vegas Golden Knights, he will not return to the lineup until August 25, 2020. When the Canucks tied the series, Toffoli scored a goal and two assists in his return to the lineup. In seven games, the Canucks lost by just one goal the remainder of the series. Despite the fact that Toffoli, the team's general manager, Jim Benning, did not want to re-sign him.
Toffoli signed a four-year, $17 million deal with the Montreal Canadiens on October 12, 2020. Toffoli's first game against the Canucks on January 20, he scored a hat-trick in a 6–5 shootout loss for the Canadiens. During the pandemic-shortened 2020–21 season, Toffoli's total goal total for a player in the NHL this season was 28 goals and 16 assists in 52 games, his seventh-best goal total for a player in the NHL this season. He continued to enjoy success during the Canadiens' deep playoffs, including scoring the team's second round against the Winnipeg Jets. Toffoli was in his second Stanley Cup Final, but he was playing with a groin injury before the playoffs and did not appear in his final six games.
Toffoli's first 26 games, battling for the overall points lead with Nick Suzuki, in what was a slow start to the 2021-22 season. Toffoli had undergone hand surgery and was set to miss eight weeks as a result of the December 11 news. However, Toffoli returned just a month later, a year later, a goal and an assist in a 5–3 victory over the Dallas Stars, owing to a faster than expected recovery. With the team under new ownership of Jeff Gorton and Kent Hughes, growing rumors that Toffoli will be traded as part of a rebuild. "I've traded before and I know better not to get caught up in the rumors," Toffoli said. "I want to be a part of it, whatever direction they choose to go in." Following his subsequent trade, teammate Nick Suzuki said, "it's difficult to lose a good friend and a good colleague."
Toffoli was traded to the Calgary Flames for Tyler Pitlick, Emil Heineman, a first-round pick in 2022, and a fifth-round pick in 2023. Darryl Sutter, his former Kings coach, and his colleagues Trevor Lewis, Milan Lucic, Sean Monahan, and Jacob Markström have all been reunited as a result of the trade. In a 6–2 victory over the Columbus Blue Jackets on February 15, he scored his first goal with the team that night. Toffoli's first ten games with the team ended in scoring drought, but by the end of the regular season, there was still no scoring drought. The Flames won the Pacific Division and advanced to the 2022 Stanley Cup playoffs to meet the Dallas Stars in the first round. Toffoli's scoring drought lasted into the playoffs, with just a secondary role in the first six games of the series, stymied by Stars netminder Jake Oettinger's stellar play. Toffoli scored his first goal of the postseason in Game 7, snapping a 16-game goalless streak, assisting the Flames in the series. In the second round of the playoff "Battle of Alberta," the Flames defeated the Edmonton Oilers in the first playoff "Battle of Alberta" in 31 years.
