Yesterday, we saw some quotes from Friedman on a radio segment he did, talking about what he thought (or heard?) that the Toronto Maple Leafs would do as far as making a big trade ahead of the deadline. He opened by opining Toronto would focus on getting a defenseman, which makes sense to me even though I’ve wanted better scoring depth since forever ago.
Sandin and Liljegren may be holding down the fort while literally everyone else is hurt on their defense group, but I don’t think any of us want Toronto to go into the playoffs relying on them that much.
