The Maple Leafs management opted not to shake up their lines too much on the first day of NHL Free Agency. While there were rumours of offers for some bigger names, none of those signing happened.

The notable additions to the team for the day were ex-Leaf Dominic Moore, and veteran Ron Hainsey.

Leafs sign Dominic Moore - Kevin
The Thornhill native returns to Toronto after setting his career high in points with the Leafs in 2008-2009.

Leafs sign Ron Hainsey to a two-year deal - ElSeldo
The former Penguins defender is here to give some defensive depth.

The arrival of Ron Hainsey marks the end of Matt Hunwick’s time on the team. Hunwick signed with Pittsburgh for three years.

Kyle Dubas also made some moves for the Marlies.

Colin Greening, Chris Mueller, Vincent LoVerde sign - Elseldo
Leafs add more AHL depth and injury call ups.

Marlies add centre Jean Dupuy - Katya
They decided to get in on the signing action today, picking up an ex-Soo Greyhounds player.

LoVerde was previously captain of the Ontario Reign, and could be a candidate to be captain of the Marlies now that Andrew Campbell has moved on to Arizona.

Other ex-Leafs on the move include Peter Holland to the Canadiens, Antoine Bibeau to the Sharks, Seth Griffith to the Sabres, and Greg McKegg to the Penguins. Noted giant duck hater Frankie Corrado also re-signed with the Penguins.
