The 32-year-old Le Toux was selected by Philadelphia in the 2009 expansion draft after being left unprotected by Seattle, and led the expansion Union with a career-high 14 goals in 2010.

Le Toux was traded to Vancouver before the 2012 season, and re-joined the Union the following year. This season, he has two goals in 21 games.
