The Toronto Maple Leafs have been one of the more interesting teams across the NHL during the offseason. After losing star Mitch Marner in free agency, Toronto's front office has been looking around the league for more help.
Toronto fell short of its ultimate goal once again, and many around the league have expected the team to make some big changes. The Maple Leafs have been exploring different avenues to add to the team, and one route could see them potentially making a deal for an All-Star.
While on "Leafs Morning Take," NHL insider David Pagnotta mentioned that Toronto has been poking around about going after St. Louis Blues star Jordan Kyrou.
David Pagnotta: I think the Leafs "poked around on Jordan Kyrou"; I don't think there was anything close there, but it's somebody they checked in on; could they poke around on Evan Rodrigues? - Leafs Morning Take

Kyrou has been on the trade block this summer, and Toronto could look to get involved in it all. Adding a player like Kyrou to the mix could be a strong addition for the Maple Leafs, and he could help fill in for the loss of Marner.
Last season, Kyrou posted 36 goals and 34 assists for the Blues. His production was a big reason why St. Louis made the playoffs, and he performed well in the limited time in the postseason.
Kyrou put up three goals in seven postseason games for St. Louis last season. The Leafs need players like Kyrou to help them get over the hump come playoff time.
