The Toronto Maple Leafs shared today an 8-year, 92-million-dollar deal extension with their best player. The contract, which features a full no-movement clause for its duration, begins in the next campaign and will keep the winger with the franchise through 2032. That is the richest total value contract the Maple Leafs have ever offered to a player.

William (27) was selected 8^th overall by Toronto in 2014 and has notched 198 goals and earned 484 points through 558 National Hockey League matches until now. This campaign has been among the winger’s best, featuring an organization-record 17-match point streak to begin the campaign, in which the winger notched 12 goals and earned 27 points.
