Leafs currently only have 3 (healthy) centers on the roster (if Groulx can fill one of those spots). I'd say by default Center is the biggest area of need for the Leafs. Raddysh was the top D-man (in minutes per game) for a very good Lightning squad, had 22 goals and 70 points, finished top 12...

Both are pending FA's.

Better than the 7th D the Leafs had at the start of last season.

Knies + Danford + COL 2027 1st Rd would be a start. I don't think a Werenski trade is a good fit for the Leafs. They have bigger needs.

I wouldn't have Maccelli above $3.5m.

Matthews finished the last 1/4 or so of his 69-goal season in 2023-2024 with Bertuzzi and Domi as his wingers. In 2022-2023 the line of Bunting-Matthews-Nylander spent about 100 more minutes together than the line of Bunting-Matthews-Marner. Most of Matthews deployment without Marner on his wing...

Vincent Desharnais?

If you had asked me yesterday, I would have said no way.

I'm really liking this draft for San Jose.

It's the thinnest market I can ever remember. I'd argue there's not a single "good" centerman available in free agency. Not a true center with a ppg above 0.50.

Did the "leaks" seem to stop after Brandon Pridham left the organization? Just a thought.

I think we'll see Danford get some games this season and probably be full time the season after that.

Last years Jays team had the magic. This team does not.

The Leafs currently have 7 NHL D-men under team control. They could move off of one (Rielly) and be fine. If they're moving off of Carlo they must know they are or can bring in another RH-D. Theoretically Rielly's $7.5m and Carlo's $3.45something million would equal out to Emil + New RH-D and...

The year the Leafs got Tanev and OEL, there were a lot of good free agents available. I still lament the Leafs not signing Sean Walker that offseason.

The hits, they just keep coming!

Me too, but I'm pretty happy with the Leafs top six. (if they don't move Knies) He's probably a luxury the Leafs didn't need.

Very few upgrades available in free agency.

To put this in some perspective, and granted he is 7 years older but, Morgan Rielly is a much better defenceman than Bowen Byram.
