«He didn't actually sign. Where the confusion comes in is that the Leafs obviously had an intent to sign him on July 1st, when (Maple Leafs GM) Brad Treliving was speaking to reporters, he talked about his excitement to add Jani Hakanpaa, and to the best of my knowledge, the reason it hasn't happened is the concern about an injury he had to end last season.
I think his knee is basically bone on bone at this point, and you've got a player who thinks he can play, but maybe some medical opinions that are casting doubt on that, and we'll just have to see if they ultimately do sign him."
