"The Mason McTavish situation is interesting. Anaheim still hasn't given McTavish a deal, and he is currently a restricted free agent. The 2021 third-overall pick is currently projected as the Ducks' second-line centre. Last year, he played 76 games and recorded 22 goals and 30 assists for 56 points. McTavish is only 22, and at that age, there is still room for growth in his game."
"The situation in Anaheim is odd-they've already moved on from Trevor Zegras and this contract situation with McTavish adds on to the weird vibe between the front office and some of their young core. The package might be the roadblock in this deal, because I'm not sure the Leafs have the assets for McTavish, but this is definitely a situation Treliving should monitor."
Most rosters are nearly set as summer progresses. The Toronto Maple Leafs have two clear roster holes: a second-line centre and a puck-moving defenceman. The focus shifts to Western Conference trade targets after earlier Eastern Conference coverage. Not every team is a sensible trade partner, so some targets are stretches. Mason McTavish of the Anaheim Ducks is a 22-year-old restricted free agent and 2021 third-overall pick who posted 56 points in 76 games last season and projects as a second-line centre. Contract uncertainty and asset cost complicate any trade for McTavish. Nazem Kadri is named as another potential target.
