It is a usual PTO.

 

[Maple Leaf]

Don't worry the love is mutual.

Personally I have no interest in the habs

 

[HabsQC]

10 pages for washed up vet on PTO? Some fans are compensating on smth lmao

Ex Hab now a Leaf will do that

 

[Habssince89]

I never understood why Pac would never one time pucks, especially on the PP. His shot was great, but it is always a set shot or on the rush. That was one of the big things that kept him from the next level of talent in his heyday. After all the injuries I can't see him doing anything significant. But if he can get carried by better linemates he might be a decent goal producer.

Who will he play with if he makes it?

Didn’t the leafs light him up when he was with the devils a couple of years ago?

Decent guy to bring in for camp I guess

 

[BonMorrison]

I thought he was done when he didn't play at all last year.

 

[HockeyVirus]

0 chance he gets a job with the Leafs, just a warm body and maybe if he does well can get another deal from someone

 

[MartyOwns]

the worst goalie the devils have dressed over the last 10 years, and that's saying a LOT

Fun fact about Jon Gillies...

you have a better chance stopping pucks by using a cardboard cutout of Jon Gillies vs using Gillies himself.

 

[FerrisRox]

I thought he was done when he didn't play at all last year.

He might have played for zero teams last year, but he played for five teams in 2021-22, so that evens it out.

 

[miscs75]

Will Patches hold up enough or is he going to break down? He’s had some unfortunate luck the past few seasons with injuries.

Biggest invite list yet, by quite a bit

Pretty much the whole Marlies+ roster invited

 

[Sniper99]

They will never have 4 forwards paid like that again.

Its the Leafs, dont ever that it wont happen again. Chances are pretty good it will happen AGAIN

[The Shadow]

Hopefully Patch works out. I like the idea of him and Tavares having that chemistry on the ice.

 

[HockeyVirus]

He surprised me last night to be honest. He's looking more like an add a team would make in free agency that improves their top 9 rather than a guy who can't play anymore clinging to hope with a PTO. He was legit.

Of course it suits him well. Both him and whoever is in that jersey collapse when the pressure is highest.
