Leafs send 1st-round pick Marner to Ontario Hockey League
Now, Boyes is the only one of the three left – and with a recent six-player trade that opened up a few free roster spots, that makes his odds of hitting the ice as a Leaf next year look pretty good. The written contract is designed for one 12 months and is actually worthy of usd700,000, in accordance with Sportsnet’s Chris Johnston.
Stephen Whyno of The Canadian Press quotes the Toronto Maple Leafs top pick in 2015 praising the Leafs captain in an article published on Yahoo. He’s also earning $833,333 from the Panthers over the next two seasons because they bought out the final campaign of his two-year, $5.25 million deal.
Boyes father, Bob, for instance – a respected principle in the family’s Mississauga-Port Credit neighborhood – was as proud as any father could be when his son was drafted in the first round, 24th overall, by the Leafs in 2000. A four-time 20-goal scorer, he netted a career-high 43 tallies with the St. Louis Blues in 2007-08.
Glencross wasn’t as visibly terrible for the Toronto Maple Leafs during camp, but he did nothing to convince the team to use a contract on him for the upcoming season.
Lamoriello has a history of re-acquiring players he knows, but the rather public nature of this rumor is a reason to be quite skeptical of it. The former Devils GM is known for being very covert in his dealings, as was the case with the trade for winger Michael Grabner with the New York Islanders last week.
After at a Toronto Maple Leafs’ boot camp linked to test arrangement, frequent forward Brad Boyes made their group.
Toronto had a few holes to plug and a cheap one-year deal with an established veteran is clearly a stopgap signing.
In 11 National Hockey League seasons, Boyes has scored 203 goals and compiled 481 points.
