Jani Hakanpaa on working his way back from a knee injury to join the Maple Leafs: "To me, it's clear I am going to get back, and the team around me in Finland had the same thought"

It feels good. It feels great. It is one of the clubs with great history. I am really excited to be a part of it.

We are all on the same page. It is great that we got it done now. We are all looking forward to getting to the real work and getting playing.

In my mind, it has been clear I am going to get back. The team around me... had the same thoughts. That was the biggest key.

It is just a knee issue that we have to manage throughout the year.
