The Toronto Maple Leafs are going to lose a player this week when the Seattle Kraken kickstart their franchise with the Expansion Draft on Wednesday.
Even though it feels like an eternity ago because the Vegas Golden Knights have been a Stanley Cup contender ever since, their Expansion Draft only took place in 2017. In four years, the Toronto Maple Leafs franchise has turned upside down and any fan who’s upset about the current state of this team should take a hard look at their protection list then.
