Maple Leafs running out of time to pull trigger on this rental forward
"The Toronto Maple Leafs need to make quick decisions before it's too late. The Leafs have had a rocky season to date, but have begun to catch fire and show us why they won the Atlantic Division just one season ago. Brad Treliving doesn't want to throw in the white towel, despite being on the outside of the playoffs, and wants to bolster their roster to try and go on a deep playoff run."
"Lots of teams have shown interest to this point. He would be a good, cheap rental that every team can afford. What will persuade teams from pulling the trigger is the price the Canucks may ask. Every day a team doesn't make the move, they risk Sherwood's price skyrocketing. The New York Rangers are the latest team to join in the Sherwood sweepstakes."
The Toronto Maple Leafs sit outside the playoffs but have improved and need swift roster moves to support a deep postseason push. Kiefer Sherwood is a likely trade candidate and is in the final year of a $3 million contract with a $1.5 million AAV. Sherwood has 17 goals and six assists for 23 points in 43 games and is on pace for a career season. Multiple teams, including the Rangers, Bruins, Stars, Red Wings, Canadiens and others, have shown interest. The Canucks may demand a high return and delaying a move risks his rental price escalating or him leaving in free agency. Brad Treliving wants to bolster the roster and must act soon.
