Good morning Toronto Maple Leafs fans!

While things are still pretty quiet in Toronto, even with the last place in the division Blue Jays playing, there seems to be some breaks in vacations around the league.

Former Washington Capitals player Evgeny Kuznetsov is reportedly looking to play in the KHL next season after a few rough seasons in Washington.

Also, Winnipeg signed some guy, so, good for him.

> Winnipeg has signed RFA defenceman Ville Heinola to a two-year contract extension with an average annual value in the NHL of $800,000.  
>  
> Heinola loses his waivers exemption this year. It's the NHL or a trip to waivers if the Jets try to return him to the Moose.
