Fraser Minten isn’t going to let his brief season with the Maple Leafs last season get to him down.

“Having some games at a younger age gives you a little bit more confidence and belief in yourself, but I don’t think it gives you anything, (other than) just a few games’ look the year before.”

Upon being returned to the Kamloops Blazers last year, Minten soon was traded to the Saskatoon Blades and had 38 points (19 goals and 19 assists) in 36 games before recording 14 points in 16 playoff games.

At this development camp, he has been skating on a line with a couple of other high-end Leafs prospects, Easton Cowan and Nick Moldenhauer

INSIDE THE LEAFS: Is signing Joseph Woll long-term a smart bet?

On the latest episode of Inside The Leafs, Postmedia’s Rob Wong chats with Toronto Sun Maple Leafs writers Terry Koshan and Lance Hornby about the report from ESPN’s Kevin Weekes that the Maple Leafs are close to signing goalie Joseph Woll to an extension and whether that is a good bet. They also discuss former NHL forward Marc Savard joining the Maple Leafs as an assistant coach on Craig Berube’s staff.

Whether Leafs general manager Brad Treliving makes further additions to his forward group, and many think that will happen in the next couple of months, Minten has a firm idea of what his outlook will be heading into camp. There will be a different head coach to impress, too, with Craig Berube having taken over from Sheldon Keefe in May.
