New Maple Leafs forward Nick Paul joins Nick Alberga for one of his first interviews since being traded to his hometown team. Paul opens up about the moment he found out he was headed to Toronto, why the call from Lightning GM Julien BriseBois caught him completely off guard, and how the news gave him goosebumps as a lifelong Leafs fan.
He also discusses the whirlwind of being traded, growing up idolizing Mats Sundin, sharing this new chapter with Darren Raddysh, and why he's excited to play alongside Sergei Bobrovsky after battling him for years. Paul explains the type of player Leafs fans can expect, embraces the spotlight that comes with playing in Toronto, weighs in on whether he'll wear No. 20, and shares his excitement about joining a team that also features No. 1 overall pick Gavin McKenna.
