Toronto will begin its on-ice sessions on Thursday afternoon, before playing its first preseason game on Sunday against the Ottawa Senators.
It will be a compelling camp, as the first-line right wing spot is open, where Matias Maccelli is the favourite to start alongside Matthew Knies and Auston Matthews. Easton Cowan will be afforded every chance of making the opening night roster, entering his third camp with the Maple Leafs, while Luke Haymes could emerge as this year’s fastest riser in camp after an excellent Prospects Showdown performance.
