The Toronto Maple Leafs signed Jani Hakanpaa earlier this off-season, but injury troubles have clouded his future, with a top insider now giving a major update.
This off-season, the Toronto Maple Leafs worked hard to make some major additions to their blue line, with Chris Tanev and Oliver Ekman-Larsson figuring to be key starters moving forward. The wild card of the entire situation is Jani Hakanpaa, who was also signed early in the off-season, but with question marks over his playing future, no one quite knew what was happening in Toronto.
Now, there has been a major update for the first time in a while, with TSN’s Chris Johnston revealing there is optimism over Hakanpaa in Toronto, and that the likelihood of him appearing at training camp is now good.
Unfortunately for Maple Leafs fans, nothing has yet been confirmed, so fans will need to remain patient and hopeful, but given we hadn’t heard anything for quite some time, this being the first update to break is very positive.
