Why Nick Robertson's new contract is major win for Maple Leafs
Briefly

Nick Robertson and the Toronto Maple Leafs have agreed on a one-year contract worth $1.825 million, thereby avoiding an arbitration hearing. This signing is a strategic move by general manager Brad Treliving, as Robertson has shown potential with twenty-nine goals in his last two seasons despite limited ice time. The Maple Leafs, with around $2 million left in salary cap space, aim to solidify their forward lineup. Robertson’s performance could yield significant returns if he transitions to a top-line role, making his contract potentially one of the best in the NHL.
Nick Robertson has settled with the Toronto Maple Leafs on a one-year, $1.825 million contract, avoiding arbitration and securing essential team business ahead of the season.
Robertson has scored twenty-nine goals over his past two seasons with the Leafs while playing fewer than seventy games, predominantly in a third or fourth-line role.
Robertson's potential scoring range is between fifteen goals while playing bottom-six and twenty to twenty-five goals if he secures a role on the top two lines.
Scoring twenty-plus goals at an average annual value of $1.875 million would make Robertson's contract one of the best in the NHL.
