The Leafs did something right, something great.
Amid the chaos, as reports surfaced that Phil Kessel and David Booth got into a scuffle at Leafs practice, some brighter news broke, this time out of Saskatchewan, courtesy of Global News.
Garrett Gamble Jr., 11, was born with a rare disease called Morquio Syndrome, which affects his bones, his heart and his hearing.
His dream - to meet the Toronto Maple Leafs - was granted in the form of the chance to sign a one-day contract.
This Saturday he will visit Toronto with his family to meet Brendan Shanahan and the team at their morning skate and drop the puck for the ceremonial face-off before flying home next week.
Check out a touching video on the big wish, courtesy of Aaron Streck, below.
And Gamble isn't playing around, he wants Bozak's number.
