According to TSN's Mark Masters the Leafs have made another major round of cuts before the start of the 2015-16 season.

> Leafs release [Curtis Glencross](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/players/54663/curtis-glencross?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) and [Devin Setoguchi](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/players/54758/devin-setoguchi?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) from PTOs

Perhaps last night in the locker room there was foreshadowing of what was to come for Devin Setoguchi:

> Mood of Boyes (joking w reporters) & Setoguchi (eyes down) couldn't have been more different; one game means a lot when you're on PTO

This leaves [Brad Boyes](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/players/55139/brad-boyes?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) as the only veteran left on a PTO. Boyes, [who we wrote about when he signed his PTO three weeks ago](https://www.pensionplanpuppets.com/leafs-sign-brad-boyes-to-pto-create-competition/), is from Mississauga, and played last season for the [Florida Panthers](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/teams/florida-panthers?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com), scoring 14 goals and 24 assists.

> Leafs return Mitch Marner to London Knights (OHL) & assign [Rob Madore](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/players/224383/rob-madore?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) to Toronto Marlies (AHL)

Mitch Marner's return to junior is not a surprise. The jump from the OHL to the NHL is huge and Marner looked at times confused and out of his league, even against the other pre-season squads. That being said he also showed flashes of elite skill, and why he was a high first round pick. No doubt this experience, and his introduction to the coaching staff, will go a long way to help him prepare for his real NHL debut.

Rob Madore is a 27 year old goaltender who has never played in the NHL. Last season he played 46 games for the Cincinnati Cyclones in the ECHL, with a SV% of 0.905\. He may make his way to the Solar Bears this season.

### Are you surprised Glencross and Setoguchi were cut?

| Yes. I thought both Glencross and Setoguchi would make it.                      | 47  |
| No. Glencross and Setoguchi did not play well. I'm not surprised they are gone. | 309 |
