The gap between Robertson’s request and the Maple Leafs’ offer is $1.05 million, but the standoff has become one of the most contentious contract negotiations of the offseason. The Robertson case, as reported by Sportnet’s Elliotte Friedman on Saturday, is the only one remaining.

It’s a new month and on Saturday, the Toronto Maple Leafs and forward Nicholas Robertson avoided arbitration by agreeing to a one-year deal that will pay the 23-year-old $1.825 million in the 2025-26 season.
