When I heard that the Toronto Maple Leafs had trade Andreas Borgman for Jordan Schmaltz, I nearly fell out of my chair.
Unfortunately, I had been enjoying some cocktails during my holidays and mistakenly heard that they had acquired Jaden Schwartz.
Once I realized that there was no way the Leafs were going to be getting Schwartz for Borgman, and that they had in fact gotten Schmaltz, I was much less excited.
So who, exactly is Jordan Schmaltz?

By now, you’re probably aware that he’s a 6’2 right-shooting defenseman who was picked 25th overall in the 2012 NHL Entry Draft.
