The Toronto Maple Leafs continued to round out their American Hockey League affiliate Toronto Marlies by signing former Hobey Baker finalist David Farrance to a one-year AHL contract on Tuesday morning.
The Marlies announced via Twitter (X) the addition to the Toronto Maple Leafs organization.
The 24-year old defenseman will be a key addition to the blue line as the Marlies lost several players to their back end by way of free agency this off-season.
This is a low-risk bet with a potentially high payoff.

Farrance was taken late in the third round of the 2017 NHL Entry Draft and 18 picks ahead of former Leafs top goalie prospect Ian Scott.
