For whatever reason, it doesn’t feel like the Toronto Maple Leafs roster is set, yet.
Although the Toronto Maple Leafs haven’t made a move in weeks and the team is tight to the salary cap, this doesn’t feel like the roster that will start on opening night.
Training camp will determine the last few spots on the team, and although those may not seem important, they’re crucial. The reason they’re so necessary is because depth is vital during an 82-game season as injuries happen on a nightly basis.
You may think you’ve crafted the perfect 23-man roster, but if a few players get injured, it’s all of a sudden not as perfect as you thought, if you don’t have depth.
If the season started today, the Leafs roster would still be a playoff team, but there’s still a ton of questions. The top-six left-wing isn’t established, the bottom-six of the forwards are mediocre and the goaltending is in question.
Even the defense has many questions, as this team looks a lot different if they don’t sign Rasmus Sandin.
With only a few weeks left until the regular season starts, there are still a number of unsigned UFA’s who could help this roster. As such, here are three UFA’s that are still available who the Toronto Maple Leafs should sign.
