"Quillan has split time between the Maple Leafs and Marlies this season, but has not been able to get a real opportunity with the NHL squad. Quillan is a player who has dominated the AHL, posting eight goals and 19 assists for 27 points in 28 games. Quillan has suited up for the Maple Leafs four times this season but has not registered a point to date. If the Maple Leafs look to sell ahead of the March 6th trade deadline, this could open a very good opportunity for Quillan to make his mark in the NHL."
"Jacob Quillan is a player many Leafs fans should be excited for. He is a responsible two-way centre with proven scoring touch in the minor league. Quillan had a strong season in the NCAA at Quinnipiac University. Quillan was an undrafted prospect who was signed with the Maple Leafs back in April of 2024. If Quillan is able to continue his development with the Marlies, we could see him transition into a bottom-six center as early as next season. The Maple Leafs will likely have a lot of gaps to fill within their lineup next season, and relying on internal help will be the Maple Leafs best bet."
""He's a real strong skater, works extremely hard. Those are his traits that - he's going to be an NHL player here and over the years coming. And it's his skating and those types of things that are going to make him a good player.""

Quillan has appeared in four NHL games this season without registering a point. Quillan developed at Quinnipiac University and signed with the Maple Leafs as an undrafted free agent in April 2024. Quillan plays a responsible two-way center game, shows a proven scoring touch in the minors, and brings strong skating and work ethic. An expanded NHL opportunity or trade-deadline roster changes could accelerate his transition to a bottom-six role next season.
