Luke Fox of Sportsnet: Now Toronto Maple Leafs defenseman Tyson Barrie could be looking for $8 million per season on his next deal. The Colorado Avalanche weren’t going to go that high for him. Barrie is sixth overall in scoring for defensemen the past two seasons.
The Maple Leafs may look to see how their blue line plays this season before making any decision. Morgan Reilly is the only Leafs defenseman that is signed beyond this season as Barrie, Cody Ceci and Jake Muzzin are all free agents.
