Toronto Maple Leafs Unveil Surprising Plan to Trade Ilya Samsonov

According to the Saturday Headline report, the Leafs are testing the waters in the goaltending market due to Joseph Woll's injury and Ilya Samsonov's recent struggles. This has prompted Treliving to mull over the possibility of bolstering the Leafs' goalie unit.

The insider, Friedman, highlighted a critical point – teams holding surplus goalies won't easily part with them unless the right offer comes along. For the Leafs to secure a new goalie, they'll likely have to put a significant offer on the table.

Considering Samsonov's performance, it appears that not many teams might be eager to take him on. To facilitate a move, Treliving may need to enhance the deal, possibly by including a prospect or a pick. The Leafs, in pursuit of goaltending stability, might need to navigate a challenging trade landscape.
