BREAKING NEWS: Toronto Maple Confirm The Signing Of Another Top Superstar To Bolster Squad…
The Toronto Maple Leafs have been active in bolstering their roster with several key signings aimed at enhancing their competitiveness. Notably, on March 7, 2025, the team acquired veteran forward Scott Laughton from the Philadelphia Flyers. Laughton, who spent 12 seasons with the Flyers, brings a wealth of experience and has accumulated 265 points over 661 career games. In exchange, the Maple Leafs sent forward Nikita Grebenkin and a first-round pick in the 2027 NHL Draft to Philadelphia.
Earlier in the season, on October 7, 2024, Toronto signed former Montreal Canadiens captain Max Pacioretty to a one-year contract. Pacioretty, 35, had previously recorded 23 points in 47 games with the Washington Capitals. His addition was expected to provide a significant boost to the team’s offensive capabilities.
Additionally, the Maple Leafs secured defenseman Oliver Ekman-Larsson on July 1, 2024, with a four-year deal averaging $3.5 million annually. Ekman-Larsson contributed nine goals and 32 points in 80 games for the Florida Panthers during the previous season, playing a role in their Stanley Cup-winning campaign.
These strategic acquisitions reflect Toronto’s commitment to strengthening their lineup as they pursue greater success in the NHL.
