The Toronto Maple Leafs have defenders to deal that a bad GM like Peter Chiarelli just might want.
According to The Fourth Period, a serviceable defender is one of the Oilers wishes for this years trade deadline.
“Chiarelli is, however, quietly exploring the market, and should a deal present itself for a bottom-six center, a backup goaltender or a serviceable defenseman, he will engage in trade discussions.” (The Fourth Period)
Enter Roman Polak and Matt Hunwick. Mr. Chiarelli, take your pick because they’re both on sale. Both Hunwick and Polak have perceived value, which is imaginary to anyone who pays attention to the games.
