With all that roster turnover, the Toronto Maple Leafs are set to have one of the most interesting, competitive training camps in recent memory.
The Leafs have jettisoned Ron Hainsey (thankfully), Nikita Zaitsev, Andreas Borgman and Calle Rosen so far this summer.
With four NHL quality defenseman off the roster, the way is clear for the Leafs top two prospects – Timothy Liljegren and Rasmus Sandin – to make the NHL.
Now, no one is saying that they will make the Leafs in October, but they do have a chance to play their way onto the team (and will guarantee that both make their NHL debuts sometime this season).
