"This includes the Toronto Maple Leafs, who released their 73-man roster comprised of 44 forwards, 23 defencemen, and six goaltenders. It is a noticeably large sized roster but under the circumstances, it is reasonable. The Leafs have seen quite a bit of turnover this off-season, especially upfront at forward with the departure of star and core four member, Mitch Marner."
"However, there are two positions that the team is quite stable, on the backend and in net with six out of their seven defencemen being under contract for at least the next two seasons. In net, Joseph Woll is locked up for the next three seasons and there are rumours that the team is working on an extension for goaltender Anthony Stolarz as well."
Training camps opened across the NHL and the Toronto Maple Leafs released a 73-man roster with 44 forwards, 23 defencemen, and six goaltenders. The roster size reflects offseason circumstances and significant forward turnover after departures including Mitch Marner, Ryan Reaves, Pontus Holmberg, and Max Pacioretty. Defensive depth and goaltending remain stable, with six of seven defencemen under contract for at least two seasons and Joseph Woll signed for three more seasons. A potential Anthony Stolarz extension could lock both NHL goalies into the near future. AHL prospects Dennis Hildeby and Artur Akhytamov are highly ranked and may be trade assets as they near age 24.
