Maple Leafs' Simon Benoit: Secures three-year deal
Benoit inked a three-year, $4.05 million contract extension with Toronto on Friday.

While the 25-year-old blueliner won't offer much in the way of offensive upside, he does have value in formats that utilize hits and blocks, as he has racked up 204 and 82, respectively, this season.

Beniot's 184 hits on the season have come in only 51 games, and as long as he stays out of the press box, he should reach 200 for the second straight campaign.
