Opening remarks:
Dubas: Thanks everybody for coming. It is a very exciting day for our organization to have signed Auston to a five-year contract extension that will take us through to 2023-24. We are obviously very thankful to our organization, MLSE, Brendan Shanahan and our ownership group for giving us the opportunity to do this with Auston. And then most importantly we are thankful to Auston and his parents, Brian and Ema, for their commitment to the Toronto Maple Leafs and also to Judd Moldaver and Jeff Jackson from the Wasserman-Orr group.
