Maple Leafs Predicted to Land 7-Time All-Star in Big Offseason Move

As the offseason gets going for the Toronto Maple Leafs, the organization could be undergoing some big changes. After another early postseason exit, Toronto could look to make a drastic move this summer.

The Maple Leafs have multiple key players entering free agency, with Mitchell Marner and John Tavares being the two main ones. Both players could leave Toronto this summer, with Marner being the more likely to exit the franchise.

If that were to happen, Toronto would need to fill his production somehow. One way could be by going out onto the free agent market to see who they could land.

Adam Gretz of Bleacher Report linked the Maple Leafs with seven-time All-Star Claude Giroux, who will be a free agent. Assuming the Maple Leafs lost some players, the two sides could work out a deal that would be mutually beneficial. 

"That would leave a massive hole in their offense, without many big-time options to replace them on the open market. Giroux could be a solid, cost-efficient replacement, and it would also give him an opportunity to play for a team that should be a Stanley Cup contender. That could give him an opportunity to chase one of the few things his career is missing: a Stanley Cup ring."
