Maple Leafs Enjoying Time in Newfoundland

Meanwhile the Maple Leafs seem to be enjoying their time here in Newfoundland.

Fans have been posting pictures with players spotted around town.

Leafs President Brendan Shanahan tweeted a video last night of local musician Damian Follett singing him Seasons in the Sun at a local establishment. In the tweet Shanahan says “Who doesn’t love Newfoundland?! Many highlights tonight but this one right up there.”

The official Maple Leafs twitter account has been busy posting a lot of the activities of the team including a boat tour which included some young hockey players from the Paradise Warriors.
