Toronto Maple Leafs: Post Draft Roster Options
Minnesota Wild, Mathew Dumba
The Wild found themselves in a similar position to the Ducks in the days leading up the draft. Unable to protect all their players, GM Chuck Fletcher threatened to trade any and all assets rather than lose a core player to Vegas for nothing. While trade rumors swirled about possible landing spots for Matt Dumba and Marco Scandella, the Leafs were central to much of the talk once again. In the end, Fletcher found a way to keep his defensive core intact.
The Wild surrendered former 1st round pick and promising prospect Alex Tuch plus their 2017 or 2018 Conditional 3rd Round Pick. The Knights officially signed Erik Haula to a three-year, $8.25 million contract Wednesday night.
Strike 3, the Leafs are OUT… of draft day trade options.
