On The JD Bunkis Podcast, insider Frank Seravalli discussed all of the latest hot-button deadline topics, including the Leafs‘ interest level in Jake McCabe and Jonathan Toews as well as their appetite to move Matthew Knies in a trade.
Seravalli on the Leafs‘ interest level in Jake McCabe:
I think they have had their eye on him for a while. Their concern has been his injury history. The last thing you want to do is take a blue line that has been mostly banged up and add someone with a significant injury risk profile.
