Maple Leafs wise to wait on clearest picture with NHL trade deadline looming

It's been a season that's gone better than most probably expected for the Toronto Maple Leafs.

Piling up points at essentially the same pace throughout last year's abbreviated season where they were the class of the one-time-only North Division, the Leafs are on pace to smash the franchise's all-time record for points in a season. Powering that, they have arguably the best line in hockey with Auston Matthews and Mitch Marner performing at the peak of their careers. They boast three offseason additions who collectively earn less than Zach Hyman and who are thriving in their specific roles.
