LeBrun: Upgrades on defence is the theme of the offseason (TSN1050)
TSN Hockey insider Pierre LeBrun joined Leafs Lunch to chat about his sit-down with Leafs GM Lou Lamoriello and weigh in on the activity heating up heading into the expansion draft.

“When I asked [Lou Lamoriello] about the amount of teams that are looking for an upgrade on defence, which he acknowledged… without tipping his hand too much, it’s clear that they’ve got a few ideas up their sleeve. But at the end of it, he did add that if they go to camp in September and they haven’t been able to accomplish that trade, they’re okay with it.
