The Maple Leafs held practices at the Paradise Double Ice Complex in Paradise, NL on Saturday. Afterwards, GM Kyle Dubas and Mitch Marner held a joint media availability to address the winger's new contract. DUBAS:"I would like to thank Mitch, his family, his representation the work that they put in in the last number of days to have this matter come to a close in the way we wanted it to from the very beginning, which was with Mitch committed to our team for an extended period of time.
Q: Kyle, you've got the core of this team together for the better part of the next decade, what does that mean to you? DUBAS: "It’s been interesting. Every single one of the players is different. They have different personalities. They have different backgrounds. They bring different things to the club. It was a very unique situation. You got young players who are extraordinarily talented and already some of the best at what they do. We all have room to grow.
