After the tragic first-round series playoff elimination at the hands of the Montreal Canadiens, Toronto Maple Leafs forward Zach Hyman refused to discuss his future with the media because he was still digesting the loss. He did said that he would "of course" prefer to stay with the Leafs "if something made sense," but that he hasn't given his contract situation much attention this season, particularly in the playoffs.
Hyman has just ended the the final year of a four-year, $9 million contract and is set to become an unrestricted free agent July 28. Everyone expects him to get a salary raise and the Maple Leafs have reportedly made him an offer already. One that, according to what Frank Seravalli has heard, Hyman has turned down.
