Nicholas Robertson has officially signed a one-year contract with the Toronto Maple Leafs, worth $1.825 million, effectively avoiding an arbitration hearing. The 23-year-old forward had a productive season, netting 15 goals and accumulating 22 points in total, along with contributions during the playoffs. This contract marks a pivotal moment for Robertson, who was the last of the 11 players that filed for salary arbitration without a contract and had a hearing scheduled.

Drafted by the Maple Leafs in 2019, Robertson has shown potential with 56 points across 156 regular-season games, including three points in the playoffs. His recent performance sets expectations high for the upcoming season, as he looks to solidify his role within the team's roster.
