The Maple Leafs and Nicholas Robertson have had a bit of a challenging relationship, but Robertson is suddenly turning heads in Toronto for all the right reasons.

For the Toronto Maple Leafs, the quest to improve their team has involved emptying the draft and prospect cupboards, which has left them with very few young assets who are able to contribute on a nightly basis.

Nick Robertson Finally Putting it All Together

The sudden spike in production has fans and pundits wondering if Robertson has finally found a way to put it all together at the NHL level. What a turn of events that would be.

Robertson has suited up in 12 of the Leafs' 13 games thus far, and has produced strong results, tallying 7 points, having spent time on each of the team's 4 lines this season.
