Good morning Toronto Maple Leafs fans?

We are once again lacking in Maple Leafs news, but there's Toronto sports making the rounds:

> The skyline.   
> The neighbourhoods.   
> The people.   
> The heartbeat of the city. [@SimuLiu](https://twitter.com/SimuLiu?ref%5Fsrc=twsrc%5Etfw&ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) knows what our City Connects mean to Toronto!

The Blue Jays are back in black. The city connect series has been revealed and they're neat. I like the hat better than the jersey though.

So, big Toronto news. Anything else happen?

The LA Kings hired some guy.

The Florida Panthers took the series lead over the Rangers.

One less prospect to worry about.

>  
> Saturday, June 1 is the deadline for Lisowsky to sign his ELC. The energetic left winger scored 42 goals in 68 games with the Saskatoon Blades this season.
