Toronto Maple Leafs May Have Interest in Montreal Defenseman
Could the Toronto Maple Leafs make a trade with their arch-nemesis for a defenseman?
A Rumor from David Pagnota says that Toronto Maple Leafs general manager Kyle Dubas has might have some interest in Montreal Canadiens defenseman Joel Edmundson.
It is no secret that the Canadiens will be sellers at the NHL trade deadline. They will be looking to trade away expiring contracts for future assets. Another thing they might do is trade away players to free up cap space for the off-season. Joel Edmundson fits into the latter category. Edmundson has one more year left on his deal with a $3.5 million salary cap hit.
