The Toronto Maple Leafs have a chance to change their playoff misfortune by making a huge trade at this year’s NHL Trade Deadline.
Remember when there wasn’t a salary-cap and the Toronto Maple Leafs could make crazy big moves, acquiring future Hall-of-Famers?
Players like Brian Leetch, Phil Housley, Ron Francis and Doug Gilmour were all acquired near the end of their career to give the Leafs one more chance at winning a Stanley Cup. Obviously, some of those trades worked out better and the team never ended up winning a championship, but at least it was exciting.
