Brooks Laich believe he'll be back with the Toronto Maple Leafs next season.
The veteran forward, who's contract has one year remaining, met with management Sunday and is pretty sure his services will be retained after receiving positive feedback about his time in Toronto.
Whether he'll be able to stomach watching the Washington Capitals fight for the Stanley Cup remains to be determined, however.
Laich was sent to Toronto by Washington prior to the trade deadline. He recorded one goals and six assists while averaging a shade under 14 minutes in 21 games with the Maple Leafs.
