Maple Leafs: Forward Kaše agrees to one-year deal

The Maple Leafs signed forward Ondrej Kaše to a one-year deal worth $1.25 million (U.S.) Friday night.

The 25-year-old could get an audition on one of the Leafs’ top two lines.

Kaše appeared in just three games with the Boston Bruins last season because of injuries. In 207 career NHL games with the Boston Bruins and Anaheim Ducks, Kaše has amassed 97 points (43 goals, 54 assists) while adding six points (two goals, four assists) in 24 playoff games.

He scored 20 goals in 2017-18, his best season.

A native of Kadan, Czech Republic, Kaše was originally selected by Anaheim in the seventh round of the 2014 NHL draft.
