The first, saw the Toronto Maple Leafs send Nikita Zaitsev and Connor Brown to the Ottawa Senators for cap relief, a draft pick and several players, including Cody Ceci, who may or may not ever play for the Leafs.
The second trade was more of a “hockey trade” which saw two teams trade with each other from positions of strength.
Subsequently the Leafs will have a better defensive forward on their roster then they’ve had since Leo Komarov’s prime. They will also have a 59 point right side defenseman to play on one of the top two pairings.
