Toronto Maple Leafs: Who Is New Defenseman, Conor Timmins?
The Toronto Maple Leafs have made their first trade of the 2022-23 season on Wednesday acquiring defenseman, Conor Timmins, from the Arizona Coyotes in exchange for AHL forward, Curtis Douglas.
The Leafs were in need of defensive depth after injuries to Morgan Rielly, Jake Muzzin and T.J. Brodie left their blueline looking very thin.
The Coyotes on the other hand weren’t sure what to do with Timmins who just returned to the team after a conditioning stint in the AHL. The Coyotes had nine healthy defensemen on their roster.
