Wow, what a night for the kid!

 

[LeafChief]

Had a solid outing tonight.

Great timing for the announcement.

I wonder if they get him into another pre-season game or if he gets sent back to Peterborough now. I believe they started their season this week.

Can you not do what MAgnus Paajarvi-Svennson did and just drop the second last name... haha

Der would be much easier!

 

[Clark4Ever]

He deserves it. He's been a very pleasant surprise at camp.

He has NHL calibre skill and speed. He just has to fill out his frame over the next few years.

 

[BertCorbeau]

Good for the kid. A strong camp and he’s earned it.

Love his potential

I'd imagine that would be a personal choice of his. I'm sure at this point, having had both names his whole life, it would be a difficult thing to just drop one.

I was thinking just for the jersey... MPS didn’t actually drop Svennson, did he?

 

[MyBudJT]

Can someone post capfriendly numbers when it’s available?

I meant for the jersey as well. I'm sure he would like to continue to represent his mother and his father as he's used to.

Literally just turned 18, a 3rd round pick and signed this early. Impressive for the kid. He will be going back to the OHL this year, but I hope he lights it up.

He was drafted with the 3rd round pick they got for trading down in the first.

[Leaf Fans]

He has been a stand out. Why wait. Good deal.

 

[Canada4Gold]

1 NHL preseason game. 1 new contract. 2 HF Leafs threads about it.

What a day for SDA. Congrats.

I always liked him when we made the pick. I think he could be a 1st rounder if he enters 2019 draft. But why sign him so early ?? Anyone plz kindly share the logic behind?

 

[LEAFANFORLIFE23]

Fantastic but how about signing Nylander?

 

[MagicalRazor]

Hes like a bootleg marner , he has the same tool kit / and drive. hes gonna be a good player i hope he plays another year in the OHL and puts up 100 + Points

What is the team supposed to do put everything else on hold? Kind of a silly suggestion don't you think?

 

[Mr Hockey]

that was quick for a 3rd pick.

 

[Joel Ward]

He really does look like Mitch out there doesn't he? After we drafted him I noticed that in highlights, but seeing them both in blue and white had me doing double takes

 

[BodaciousBeefBazooka]

Didn't even know who he was too be honest until I was reading the forums earlier today. I'm clearly out of the loop. Now he signs an ELC? Interesting and good for him!

 

[TMLeafer]

Good project I guess. I'm intrigued.

 

[Man Bear Pig]

Who was the last 3rd rounder signed this quickly for us? Seems like it doesn't happen often.
