Maple Leafs Re-sign Forward Hamilton to One-Year Deal

The Toronto Maple Leafs have announced that they have signed left wing Ryan Hamilton to a one-year contract extension. Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed. He would have been a free agent on July 1. In 47 games last season with the Toronto Marlies of the AHL, he scored 16 goals and nine assists for 25 points. He has yet to play in an NHL game. Not really much to say about this signing, as it's really just a depth move for the Maple Leafs. Hamilton is not a bad special teams player and can chip in goals from time to time. If he does make the the team next season, it will likely be on the fourth line.
