[Kloke] Sounds like the Maple Leafs will not be signing 2022 seventh-round pick Brandon Lisowsky to an entry-level contract. Saturday, June 1 is the deadline for Lisowsky to sign his ELC. The energetic left winger scored 42 goals in 68 games with the Saskatoon Blades this season.

Lisowsky: 42G, 38A, 80P, 68GP, 1.17 P/GP
Minten: 22G, 26A, 48P, 43GP, 1.11 P/GP
Can someone explain why Minten is a top 5 prospect in our pool and we’re about to cut ties with Lisowsky for nothing? I’ll freely admit I haven’t seen any of their WHL games this year, so what’s the difference? Lisowsky’s small, is that it? Is it a defensive thing? Is Lisowsky feasting on easy minutes while Minten takes the hard matchups?
Lisowsky will wind up in the NHL one day and happen to get one of (if not his only) goals that year in a 3-2 win over the Leafs.
This is the (ex-Leaf) way.
