10 (Mostly) Elite Defensemen the Toronto Maple Leafs Could Trade For

The Toronto Maple Leafs cannot possibly think they can win a Stanley Cup with their current blue-line.

In fact, the Toronto Maple Leafs summer plans were extremely confusing for anyone who saw Jake McCabe play against Florida last spring.

The Leafs got a new GM, let their two toughest defenders walk (Justin Holl and Luke Schenn) and replaced them with John Klingberg, a player who is a) not tough at all b) in decline c) three or four years removed from being a good top four player.

They then inserted him into their top four, and didn’t bother to add any toughness or depth at all for the rest of the summer.
