""The 24-year-old finds himself one more time in a very familiar spot with theToronto Maple Leafs, and he's hoping for a larger role, opportunity in the National Hockey League. He's pushing 160 NHL games. I know that Toronto Maple Leafs GM Brad Treliving has recently talked with clubs that may have some interest in Nick Robertson. Given the depth that the Maple Leafs have, it's a tough spot for Robertson. So maybe it's time to give him a fresh start somewhere else.""
""Toronto Maple Leafs must trade Nick Robertson When the Leafs signed Maccelli, they essentially said they weren't going to give Robertson a chance because in my opinion, Robertson could be exactly what Maccelli was with that organization. In 82 games, Maccelli scored 17 goals and registered 57 points as an undersized winger, and was given a bigger opportunity because he was on a bad team.""
Nick Robertson, a 24-year-old Maple Leafs winger approaching 160 NHL games, has limited minutes with one assist in four games and roughly 11:12 average ice time. GM Brad Treliving has discussed Robertson with other clubs, reflecting organizational depth and the challenge of finding him a larger NHL role. Recent signings like Matias Maccelli and Easton Cowan have reduced Robertson's opportunity for top-six minutes. Robertson's energy, forechecking and physical play indicate offensive upside. A trade or change of scenery could allow Robertson to develop into a higher-impact, offensively productive winger given more opportunity.
