Hurricanes: Reviewing the Marleau Trade After Leafs Fired Babcock

On June 22nd 2019, the Carolina Hurricanes acquired Patrick Marleau, a 2020 1st round pick, and a 2020 7th round pick from Toronto for a 2020 6th round pick. Carolina would only get the 2020 pick if it is not in the top 10, if it is, it becomes a 2021 1st round pick, no matter where it falls.

Patrick Marleau would never play an NHL game for the Hurricanes and would be bought out just a few days later. Marleau missed the start of the season, but would return to his favored destination in the California Bay Area San Jose Sharks.
