"Sim originally joined the organization last spring on May 5, signing a one-year deal with the AHL's Toronto Marlies. He was coming off a strong final OHL season with the London Knights, where he emerged as one of their key secondary contributors with 53 points (30 goals and 23 assists) in 54 games."
"His first pro season in the AHL was far from a smooth one, as he missed significant time due to a long-term injury he suffered early in the season. Sim appeared in only 13 AHL games, mustering three goals, and he registered six points (two goals and four assists) in 18 games with the ECHL's Cincinnati Cyclones."
"Sim made a strong impression during training camp with his physical play and willingness to drop the gloves, which has carried through in the latter half of this season once he got healthy. Although he was among the early cuts at camp, it is clear that upper management has been impressed with the progress he made."
Landon Sim has signed a two-year entry-level contract with the Toronto Maple Leafs, effective in the 2026-27 season. He joined the organization last spring after a successful OHL season with the London Knights, contributing significantly to their Memorial Cup victory. Despite a challenging first pro season in the AHL due to injury, Sim's physical play and all-around game have impressed management, leading to his NHL contract. His potential lies in becoming a valuable bottom-six forward known for his physical presence.
