"The Toronto Maple Leafs and general manager Kyle Dubas made a big signing on Friday. The Leafs have signed Joe Thornton to a one year deal. Jumbo Joe really wants to play for the Leafs and he showed it by signing a league minimum deal of $700k. The deal also includes no 35 years old plus performance bonuses. More to come.
Joe Thornton's contract with the #leafs includes no 35-plus performance bonuses. He signed just for the league minimum salary: $700,000. Big help for Toronto's cap situation. — Chris Johnston (@reporterchris) October 16, 2020
