The Toronto Maple Leafs have signed college free-agent defenseman Joseph Duszak of Mercyhurst University to a two-year, entry-level contract, the team announced Wednesday.
The 21-year-old led all NCAA defensemen and ranked third among skaters with 47 points in 37 games this season.
Duszak, a right-handed shot, adds depth to Toronto's farm system and is expected to join the AHL's Marlies on a tryout basis later this week.
