Overview

• Toronto and the 23-year-old winger agreed on a one-year extension worth US$1.825 million on August 2, canceling the scheduled hearing for August 3.
• The negotiated figure landed above the midpoint of their filings after Toronto proposed $1.2 million and Robertson filed for $2.25 million.
• Robertson earned his largest NHL salary to date following a 2024-25 campaign in which he recorded 15 goals and seven assists in 69 games.
• By settling before the hearing, the Leafs aim to preserve Robertson’s confidence and avoid the strained dynamics seen in past arbitration cases.
• With roughly $1.1 million in cap space remaining, Toronto can now prioritize adding depth after Mitch Marner’s offseason departure.
