On a one-year contract with a cap hit of $775,000, Gregor played in 63 games, scoring six goals and adding six assists for 12 points. In the postseason, he would join the team in the latter half of their opening-round series against the Bruins, appearing in two games. He joined the Leafs after his previous team, the San Jose Sharks, didn't tender him a qualifying offer last year.
