As the Leafs begin a build oriented around the draft and development, there are no shortage of names to keep tabs on moving into the future. William Nylander, Kasperi Kapanen and Mitch Marner provide a wealth of name value to the forthcoming forward corps.
On the back end, Rinat Valiev is a promising prospect leaving an impression for the Leafs.
Valiev enters his rookie season with the Toronto Marlies after playing a pair seasons with the Kootenay Ice of the Western League. In 107 games with the Ice, he recorded 14 goals and 72 points from the blueline.
