Toronto Maple Leafs: 3 Trade Targets for Brad Treliving

It’s no secret that the Toronto Maple Leafs are looking to make a trade right now.

Although the Toronto Maple Leafs have a decent record after 15 games played, they’re lucky to be where they are right now and GM Brad Treliving should be worried for his job.

However, if Treliving is going to make a move, he’s probably going to target his former club to do so. If you thought the Leafs were off to a bad start, you should just look at his old team, the Calgary Flames.

In April, the Flames and Treliving agreed to “mutually part ways” which is just a nice way to say we’ve fired you.

He was with the club for such a long time that I think that’s why they communicated it that way, because he sent the team back years.

Trading for Jonathan Huberdeau and signing Nazem Kadri didn’t fit at all and the entire team is in shambles.

They’re clearly in a rebuilding phase when it looked like they were set up for long-term success with Jacob Markstrom, but that doesn’t seem to be the case.

The team may be having a terrible season, but that could benefit the Leafs who desperately need an upgrade on defense.

Calgary may be off to a bad start, but they have some pieces on defense that could really help the Leafs. As a result, here are three players who the Toronto Maple Leafs will look to target sooner than later.
