"Scott Laughton is all the way up near the top of the list at No. 5 as the most likely player to move. Bobby McMann follows him at No. 9 to have two pending free agent forwards on the Leafs in the top 10. And then defenseman Oliver Ekman-Larsson, as another obvious candidate to be on the move, is at No. 11."
"While he has been possibly been the best waiver claim the Leafs have made in years and years, the pending unrestricted free agent isn't set to be a long-term player in Toronto and taking advantage of a market that is overpaying for defenseman -- Logan Stanley and Luke Schenn just managed to fetch the Winnipeg Jets a second-round pick and top prospect -- makes perfect sense."
As the NHL trade deadline approaches, five Toronto Maple Leafs players have been identified on Frank Seravalli's latest trade board as potential targets for Stanley Cup contenders. Scott Laughton ranks at No. 5 as the most likely to be traded, followed by Bobby McMann at No. 9, with both being pending free agents. Defenseman Oliver Ekman-Larsson appears at No. 11 as another expected candidate. Troy Stecher, a successful waiver claim and unrestricted free agent, is listed at No. 11, with teams overpaying for defensemen making him a logical trade option. Matthew Knies rounds out the list at No. 48, possibly due to recent trade market developments.
