It will be a busy offseason for the Maple Leafs, and it appears that GM Brad Treliving is exploring several trade options to revamp his team’s forward corps during an offseason where he’s looking to change the team’s DNA.
On the ice, Florida Panthers forward Brad Marchand is one of the biggest pests and agitators in the NHL. He is always looking to cause problems and get under the skin of opponents anyway he can. He is taking that persona off the ice as well following the team's Stanley Cup win.
Connor McDavid has only one year remaining on his contract with the Edmonton Oilers, and there has been some talk of him potentially leaving the franchise.
The case centered on the $15.25 million signing bonus he received in 2018, which the CRA argued should be taxed as regular income rather than a signing bonus.
For the second consecutive season, Connor McDavid had to watch the Florida Panthers skate around with the Stanley Cup. His organization needs to do more to support its star.
With the NHL buyout window opening this week, many expect a few teams to be making some moves to clear up some salary space ahead of free agency opening up on July 1.
