In a salary cap world, overhauling the roster is commonplace for the Toronto Maple Leafs and the 2020-21 season will be no different.
The Leafs blue-line on opening night this year saw just one player who was on the roster the previous opening night.
This week the Leafs added yet another blue liner in Mikko Lehtonen, so it seems like a good time to check the depth chart.
Toronto Maple Leafs Blue-Line Depth
Even looking back at the 2018-19 season to now, only three defenseman are still with the Leafs.
2018-19 Toronto Maple Leafs Defense
- Ron Hainsey
- Nikita Zaitsev
- Travis Dermott
- Jake Muzzin
- Jake Gardiner
2019-20 Toronto Maple Leafs Defense
- Morgan Rielly
- Jake Muzzin
- Tyson Barrie
- Justin Holl
- Cody Ceci
- Travis Dermott
Rasmus Sandin, Calle Rosen and Martin Marincin are three players who could slide into one of those top-six spots but if the playoffs started today and everyone was healthy, those six would most likely start.
