The Toronto Maple Leafs may have secured victories during their Sweden stint, but a critical issue remains in their lineup: the blue line. A recent development suggests that Brad Treliving is on the verge of addressing this concern, potentially through a significant trade involving John Klingberg.
Elliotte Friedman"Friedman on 32TP mentions we may find out about John Klingberg's future this week."
If Klingberg, with his $4M contract, departs, Treliving gains valuable cap space to maneuver. The speculation extends to the possibility of creating room for a top player, and all eyes are on Patrick Kane's potential return.
Despite competition from other teams and financial considerations, the allure of joining a top NHL team like the Leafs might sway Kane, adding another layer of intrigue to Toronto's evolving roster dynamics.
