Toronto Maple Leafs forward Jason Spezza had the chance to play for his hometown team this season, and he's hoping he can continue to do so.
"I definitely feel I have game left," the veteran said, according to Sportsnet's Luke Fox. "And there's nowhere else I'd rather be than play another year here in Toronto."
The Mississauga, Ontario, native signed a one-year, $700,000 deal with the Maple Leafs last summer and is set to become an unrestricted free agent this offseason.
Spezza will turn 37 in June. He's filled a bottom-six role nicely for Toronto, recording nine goals and 16 assists in 58 games while averaging 10:50 minutes of ice time.
He has skated in 1,123 career games, racking up 341 goals and 599 assists.
