Toronto Maple Leafs Sign Egor Korshkov to Two-Year ELC
For the Toronto Maple Leafs, this is a moment which many had thought would never come.
Egor Korshkov is officially a Maple Leaf. Well, this has technically been the case ever since 2016 when then-assistant-GM Mark Hunter announced his name as the 31st pick in the draft, but Korshkov’s path to North America and, ultimately, the Leafs organization paints a far murkier picture. It’s been a long and winding journey for the Russian-native; one littered with plenty of stops and starts.
That journey finally reached its destination this morning.
