Shortly after the Toronto Legion were eliminated from the VHL playoffs, American star Jimi Jax put a quick end to the rumors and uncertainty around the player’s future with Toronto. The team’s leading scorer re-upped with the Legion on a 3-year contract and will be with the Legion in the long term.
