Drafted in the second round by the Maple Leafs in 2019, the 22-year-old Robertson faces the challenge of remaining in the spotlight following a series of injuries that marred his initial professional years.
Before these setbacks, he had a standout OHL career and has since exhibited impressive scoring capabilities in the AHL. Now that he's back to full health, Robertson is determined to cement his position in the Leafs' lineup.
The Leafs, seen as potential Stanley Cup frontrunners this season, have only bolstered their formidable forward line. This enhancement, while positive for the team, makes it even more challenging for a talent like Robertson to secure a prime spot.
Robertson's playing style lends itself best to a top-six role. Yet, the rapid rise of Matthew Knies adds a twist to the team's lineup predictions.
For many fans and the management, Knies is now the brighter shining prospect, potentially sidelining Robertson in the depth chart hierarchy.
But as the training camp unfolds, Robertson's passion and competitive nature are evident. While his future role remains uncertain, it would be unwise to dismiss his potential.
