Be it via trade, or free agency, the Toronto Maple Leafs have added six new faces who figure to be on the NHL roster come October.
Tyson Barrie, Alexander Kerfoot, and the controversial Cody Ceci were acquired in sizeable trades, while depth forwards Kenny Agostino (two years) Jason Spezza (one year), and Nick Shore (one year) quickly signed short-term deals on July 1.
Even with all the moves made by GM Kyle Dubas, the perception of the Maple Leafs’ standing in the Atlantic Division doesn’t seem to have changed much. At least not in the eye of one sportsbook.
