When the Toronto Maple Leafs take on the Chicago Blackhawks on Saturday night, it will be their final game before kicking off a bye-week before the 2020 Honda NHL All-Star Game and a handful of Leafs players have made some very interesting and exciting vacation plans.
According to Sportsnet's Chris Johnston, William Nylander, Frederik Andersen, Jake Muzzin and Kasperi Kapanen have made plans to visit Augusta, Georgia.
If that name sounds familiar, it's because Augusta, Georgia is where Augusta National Golf Club resides, the official home of golf's most iconic event, The Masters.
For the many players who choose to spend their spare time on the golf course during breaks and in the off-season, having the opportunity to play at Augusta would be an absolute dream. Just imagine stepping onto the first tee blocks, pushing your tee into the soil, placing a ball on top and teeing off on the same course where Tiger Woods, Jack Nicklaus and Phil Mickelson had cemented their status as all-time golfing greats.
Granted, the Leafs' players are much more likely to be playing from the bushline on their second shots on this iconic course, but nevertheless - it's still pretty cool!
