After failing to make a deep playoff run for yet another year, the Leafs were once again very busy this off-season, signing numerous veterans. This big spending spree has pushed them right up against the cap with little to no wiggle room.
TSN's Chris Johnston has now stated that the team is placing three of their players on the trading block, in the hope that several trades may help clear up some salary.
Leafs GM Brad Treliving has stated that while he is not in a rush to make any moves and is content with his current roster, should the right deal come along that would be hard to pass up, he would definitely agree to a trade.
As the summer months go on, it will be interesting to see what moves the Leafs make to free up cap space, which will become especially important during the season to ensure the team remains competitive.
