The Toronto Maple Leafs may have very limited trade leverage this summer given the way the market has played out.
Right now the Toronto Maple Leafs find themselves over the salary cap with Rasmus Sandin still needing a potentially costly new deal.
Given the way that the roster is built, there are very limited options to be dealt and even those that could be shifted will likely not earn decent returns.
It seems, if I am reading the current market correctly, that the Leafs now lack any real buying power.
Toronto Maple Leafs Will Get Small Returns in Trades
While the big ticket deal that saw Matthew Tkachuk heading to Florida in return for Mackenzie Weegar and Jonathan Huberdeau certainly limits options; this deal isn’t the one that damages the Toronto Maple Leafs leverage the most.
