In case you missed the news while celebrating Canada Day on the weekend, or you are a masochist from another fanbase here to see us talk about this even more, John Tavares is a Maple Leaf.
I won’t tire of writing that for at least a few weeks.
Speaking of a few weeks, it’s still that and a bit more until there’s more actual hockey for us to discuss, but there’s still loose ends for the Leafs to tie up. We’re watching out for news on a new contract for William Nylander, as well as contracts from some other RFAs like Justin Holl and Frederik Gauthier.
