The Toronto Maple Leafs are putting Auston Matthews to work.
With Harvard standout Jimmy Vesey set to hit the free-agent market at midnight Tuesday, the first overall pick in this summer's draft is going to be putting on his salesman suit before he plays a game in blue and white:
A decision from Vesey's camp isn't expected until late this week or on the weekend, his agent said Monday.
Toronto is one of a handful of clubs linked to the 23-year-old, but are thought to have an inside track on the soon-to-be free agent. The Maple Leafs drafted Vesey's brother, Nolan, in 2014, and employ Vesey's father, Jim, as an amateur scout.
