Description

The Toronto Maple Leafs elevate one of their brightest and top prospects in Nick Robertson, a goal scoring machine and Rocket on the ice to the team to play on the creation of a second dominating line with John Tavares and William Nylander. This gives the Leafs the best top two lines by one team in entire NHL and not seen for years.

Hockey fans have been waiting patiently for this development and remember that Nick Robertson was the young player who scored a mind boggling 55 goals and 33 assists for 86 points in only 46 games in the OHL for the Peterborough Petes during the 2019-2020 season.

He may have been one of the biggest steals of the 2019 NHL Draft when he was selected by Kyle Dubas for the Leafs with the 53rd overall pick and was one of the youngest players from his NHL draft class.

Nick Robertson is the younger brother to Jason Robertson of the Dallas Stars. He is a very stong skater, extremely creative with the puck with high-end vision and elite goal scoring and shooting skills and a star in the making.

CHI isn't the team for Kerfoot. We are getting worse and rebuilding not buying to improve.

How can you say the 3rd line which is a total defensive shutdown line sucks?........Not sure if you understand the importance of a shutdown line to a team's success in the National Hockey League or if you spend all your time listening to the Toronto Media which is out to lunch most of the time.

1) that line is not a shutdown line, almost every single top line in the NHL torches that line.
2) why the actual **** would he be listening to the Toronto media. He isn’t a leaf’s fan so why would he be listening to the Toronto media. From what I recall most fans follow their teams media and not torontos.

Again for probably the millionth time how am I (or most people on here) listening to the Toronto media when we don’t live there???? Also, that third line would be a fantastic fourth line, but I would have zero confidence in a playoff series with that as my third line, fourth line not an contenders fourth line.
