Tragic news has struck Maple Leafs organization

Just a few hours ago, the Toronto Maple Leafs organization released somber news that Paul Giordano, the father of Mark Giordano had suddenly passed away on Thursday night.

There has been no word on what the cause of his passing was, but the outpouring of support from fans, other players and other organisations have been flooding the X platform along with the organization itself including his former team, the Calgary Flames.

According to Sportsnet, Paul worked in the real estate industry and is survived by his wife Anna along with their children Mark and Michelle. The Maple Leafs have not released news whether Mark will miss time with the organization.

We send our condolences to the Giordano family.
