From a food safety standpoint, not much happens to syrup except some mold growth. If there is no mold and it smells like maple syrup, it is probably just fine to use. The age on it might mean that the flavor has deteriorated some and/or it may have darkened. The syrup's quality will depend on conditions where it was stored and the type of bottle used.

Raw maple syrup - such as you would buy at a country stand where they make it on the property - should be refrigerated, yes. Store bought maple syrup does not need to be refrigerated, in fact one well-known brand states on the label: "Refrigeration not necessary". Unless you use your syrup within two or three weeks after opening, it helps to refrigerate it. I've had open syrup develop a type of mold after a few weeks even though it was labeled not to require refrigeration.
Can expired maple syrup hurt you?
Expired maple syrup can hurt you if there is mold growing on the bottom of it. But if you scrape off the mold then the chances of you getting sick are very slim.

He got this because the crystal sugar in it gets stuck in your appendix and can cause major pain. So before you eat old maple syrup, please be safe and don't Kill yourself.
