Maple Leafs, Connor Brown agree to 3-year contract

The Toronto Maple Leafs have signed forward Connor Brown to a three-year contract extension worth $6.3 million, the team announced.

Brown, Toronto's last remaining restricted free agent, will therefore carry an average annual valuation of $2.1 million against the salary cap.

In his first full season with the Maple Leafs, Brown registered 20 goals (17 at even strength) and 16 assists, finishing fifth on the team in goals and eighth in points.

Brown will once again be a restricted free agent at the end of this new deal, per Cap Friendly.

The Maple Leafs now have 23 players under contract with less than a month to go until training camp.
