As the NHL season approaches, anticipation builds for breakout players. The Maple Leafs are set to rely not only on their stars but also on their depth players for success.

Max Domi is expected to elevate his game this season, aiming to surpass 50 points after a solid postseason performance. Matthew Knies, a promising rookie, is also positioned for a successful sophomore season with continued development.

Alexander Nylander, though signing an AHL contract, could bring valuable depth to the roster, especially after his recent scoring success. Bobby McMann, having shown potential in the second half of last season, aims to solidify his role and provide strong secondary production.
