Good morning Toronto Maple Leafs fans!

If you aren't following @MarkUKLeaf on Twitter (currently known as X) you're missing out on some great Marlies and British hockey coverage.

Yesterday he posted this tidbit on the currently unsigned Maple Leafs / Marlies player Alex Steeves.

So, currently those records are held by:

All time points: Kris Newbury - 168 points in 198 games

All time goals: 94 goals in 258 games

All time assists: Michael Zigomanis - 116 assists in 204 games

Steeves has reached these highs after only 188 games with the Marlies, well below the team record of 312 games played set by Alex Foster.

Here's hoping we get some ceremonies next season for Steeves.

So, focusing on Marlies records clearly means we are deep into the summer. What else has happened?

Travis Konecny has resigned with the Flyers with an eight year $70M deal.

Best sport. Dumbest league.

No Retread Is Too Disgraced For The NHL | Defector
The Edmonton Oilers named Stan Bowman their general manager and executive vice president of hockey operations Wednesday morning. Bowman spent more than a decade as GM of the Chicago Blackhawks before resigning in 2021. The Oilers, who were a game shy of a Stanley Cup this past June, seem to think Scotty Bowman’s embarrassing son can get them over the hump.
