The Leafs made some minor signings today re-signing Ben Ondrus and Ryan Hamilton. They also signed three free agent forwards in Tim Brent, Jay Rosehill and Richard Greenop.

Brent led the AHL’s Rockford IceHogs in scoring with 20 goals and 42 assists for 62 points. The Cambridge native is 25.

The 20 year old Greenop, who ranked sixth overall in the Ontario Hockey League in PIM, was a member of the Memorial Cup winning Windsor Spitfires.

The Leafs also signed 2009 first round draft choice Nazem Kadri to a three year entry level contract.  The 18 year old scored 78 points in 56 games this season with the London Knights of the OHL. He added another 21 points in 14 playoff games.
