MIN and TOR have a trade for the rights to unsigned junior Fedor Gordeev, who goes back into the draft if not signed before June 1. 7th round pick if he signs in MIN. Which is fully expected to happen.
— Bob McKenzie (@TSNBobMcKenzie) May 30, 2019In a trade that makes sense for everyone, and gives a young player a chance at a pro career, the Leafs have traded the rights to prospect Fedor Gordeev to the Minnesota Wild for a conditional pick.
The Leafs are stacked on defence in the AHL, and would struggle to give Gordeev any ice time.
