Opinion: It’s impossible to look at where the Leafs were last season and not get the feeling something pretty big is going to happen, writes DamoSpin
. He shares the stage with Morgan Rielly.
Actually, it already has. Last year’s 115-point regular season was the most successful in team history. Auston Matthews did things no Leaf player has ever done before. Jason Spezza has retired. The additions of Nicolas Aubé-Kubel from the roster of the Cup-winning Avalanche and Jarnkrok should fill the gaps left by Spezza and Mikheyev.
The Leafs could use an upgrade on either Alex Kerfoot or Michael Bunting in the top six forwards. Justin Holl, one year away from UFA status, and Jake Muzzin, probably too banged-up to be worth the $5.625 million he eats up on the payroll, look to be movable assets. Rasmus Sandin is unsigned, but still an asset.
Who will that player be? Well, just look toward all the talented forwards who are currently scheduled to become unrestricted free agents next summer.
