Hakanpaa (knee) could practice with the Leafs' main group for the first time next week, reports Terry Koshan of the Toronto Sun.
Hakanpaa has been working his way back from arthroscopic surgery this past spring and has been wearing the red no-contact jersey while skating with the Marlies-bound third group. Hakanpaa played 64 regular-season games with Dallas in 2023-24, scoring two goals and 10 assists while averaging 18:39 of ice time.
