The Toronto Maple Leafs signed forwards Max Pacioretty and Steven Lorentz to one-year deals and inked defenseman Cade Webber to a two-year extension.

Pacioretty, 35, signed a deal worth $873,770 after a professional tryout in training camp. Lorentz signed a deal worth $775,000 coming over from the Florida Panthers.

Pacioretty had 23 points (four goals, 19 assists) in 47 games for the Washington Capitals last season. In 902 career regular season games, Pacioretty has recorded 668 points (330 goals, 338 assists) while adding 50 points (25 goals, 25 assists) in 78 playoff games.

“Training camp was unlike any one I’ve ever had in the sense that you are trying to use it to get into shape and get ready but at the same time impress people, so it was unique in that sense. It was a very hard camp in a good way, exactly what I needed to get up to speed,” Pacioretty said.

Lorentz, 28, recorded three points (one goal, two assists) in 38 games with the Panthers during the 2023-24 regular season while adding three points (two goals, one assist) in 16 playoff games and winning the 2024 Stanley Cup.

Webber’s extension begins in the 2025-26 season. The contract is a two-way deal for the 2025-26 season before becoming a one-way contract in 2026-27 and carries an average annual value of $825,000. He skated in 38 games during the 2023-24 season with Boston University, recording six assists, and helped the Terriers reach the 2024 Frozen Four semifinals.
