Toronto Maple Leafs Desperately Need to Find a Diamond in the Rough

The Toronto Maple Leafs recent drafting has been outstanding.

Ever since Kyle Dubas took over as the General Manager, the Toronto Maple Leafs have focused on skill above all else, and this has led to some excellent prospects.

The Leafs traded down to add both Travis Dermott and Rasmus Sandin, while adding another lottery ticket to their portfolio. The Leafs also drafted Timothy Liljegren and Nicholas Robertson, in the first and second rounds, respectively.

Together, they give the Leafs a decent group of young players who can hopefully support the highly drafted core of Nylander, Marner, Rielly, and Matthews in upcoming years.
