It’s that time of year again. The Leafs are eliminated from the playoffs before their time, and our thoughts turn from the past to the future. That means free agency, trading, and... of course... the NHL draft.
This year the Leafs will enter the draft with (as of now) three picks: their first rounder, a third rounder they got from the Jets, and their seventh rounder.
Last year I wrote a little primer and list of resources to lead into my full draft profiles of the prospects I am most interested in, who should be in the range of the Leafs’ picks.
