I would like to take this opportunity to say THANK YOU to all MY FANS for your support. At the same time, I would like to thank all my Teammates, Coaching Staff and Management in Toronto. It has been a dream come true to play for the Toronto Maple Leaf hockey club. Leaf Nation has treated my family like royalty. We have made many friends in Toronto. Toronto will always be a place my family can call home. I received a lot of messages since ‘the trade’ was announced. Thank you for all your kind words. You support means a lot to me and my family. Finally, I would like to offer some words of advice…Keep Your Head Up!

I have already received messages from Panthers Fans. Thank you for welcoming me to the Sunshine State. I look forward to meeting Management and Coaching Staff as well as playing with my new Teammates. I am excited and look forward to contributing to the success of the Florida Panthers hockey club on and off the ice.

Sign up and receive my official newsletter and message that will keep you informed of my developments throughout the year!
