I know, I know, Keith Kinkaid just cleared waivers, being sent down to the minors. But let’s remember he took the bullet for a mess of a Montreal team right now. Let’s also not forget he was pretty decent with the Devils.
Kinkaid has a decent history of NHL success and would cost nothing to acquire other than his salary.
At this point, Kinkaid can very well be a last resort if the Leafs can’t acquire someone better.
I wouldn’t say I want him, but I’d take him over Hutchinson.
His contract is on the more expensive side at $1.75 million, which means the Leafs would have to shed some salary too somehow.
Let’s hope it doesn’t get to this point of desperation for the Leafs.
Those are five options I think the Toronto Maple Leafs should consider, let me know who you think the Leafs should target.
