The problem is that the Toronto Maple Leafs wingers are not very good, especially without William Nylander in the fold. Sure, there is some hope that the Josh Leivo, Tyler Ennis, Kasperi Kapanen and Andreas Johnson all breakout, but that is unlikely. Maybe one or two will prove to be fine, but it’s still a problem.
The Leafs are particularly weak on the left side.
As constructed, the current team is problematic and they are going to need some finishers to go with their excellent centre depth. Right now it doesn’t look they have them.
