TORONTO -- Veteran forward David Booth has signed a one-year contract with the Toronto Maple Leafs after spending last season with Vancouver.
Last month, the Canucks used a compliance buyout on the remaining year of his contract, freeing up over $5 million in salary cap space.
The 29-year-old winger had nine goals and 10 assists in 66 games last season.
