Based on revisionist history, the Toronto Maple Leafs made a terrible decision allowing Jared McCann to go unprotected during the Seattle Kraken Expansion Draft.
The fact that the Toronto Maple Leafs acquired McCann in exchange for Filip Hallander and a 7th Round Draft Pick and didn’t take advantage of it, is so sickening.
Two years ago, the Leafs decided to protect the following players: Jack Campbell, Jake Muzzin, Morgan Rielly, TJ Brodie, Justin Holl, Auston Matthews, John Tavares, Mitch Marner and William Nylander.
As a result, it left Alex Kerfoot and McCann as the two likely players to get drafted by the Kraken.
