In light of the approaching trade deadline, Brad Treliving cautioned against expecting major trades. He asserted the importance of considering how to best enhance the team rather than going for attention-grabbing deals, which may not yield significant benefits. He identified the limitations faced by the Leafs, including a constrained salary cap and a shortage of draft picks, making it a challenge to become aggressive buyers. With rival teams making significant moves, the challenge for the Leafs to keep pace while managing resources remains crucial as they aim for playoffs.
"To me, it is not about taking big swings. Where do you think you can help your team the most?"
"Historically, if you look back at these attention-grabbing deadline deals, really look back at how many have really paid dividends."
