The Toronto Maple Leafs have gotten two pieces of business out of the way, even though the NHL offseason is just beginning.
While the playoffs were still ongoing, the Toronto Maple Leafs signed Mark Giordano to a very team-friendly $800 K contract, making him, essentially the “new Spezza.”
Then yesterday they announced that they had signed Timothy Liljegren to two-year extension with a cap hit of $1.6 million.
Whether or not the two defensemen play together again next year is unknown at this point, but if they do, the Leafs will have a very effective pairing for just $2.
