They are just stacked to the rafters with wingers and, at a certain point, something has to happen. Usually you don’t see trades in training camp, but it wouldn’t surprise me if the Toronto Maple Leafs make a move before the season starts.
They invited 73 players to camp, and it seems as if about 65 of them are high quality wingers. This is the one thing that always made me wonder about the signing of Patrick Marleau – why do you even need him?
James van Riemsdyk has been on the trade block forever, and Kasperi Kapanen is definitely ready for a regular role after last seasons players, but those aren’t the only problems.
