Necessary Shake Up

Team: 2023-24 Toronto Maple Leafs

Initial Creation Date: May 8, 2023

Published: May 8, 2023

Salary Cap Mode: Basic

The (new?) Leafs GM makes some spectacular moves, trading red hot Nylander to NYR, where his father had his best seasons, for Lafreniere. The Leafs take a bet on the kid, discounting the slow progress. The Rangers wanted to shake up their kid line, so they jump on the occasion to get a high end talent.

The GM also manages to trade Rielly to the Kings, who have long waited for a dominant #1 LHD. The return is another youth, Vilardi.

With these two trades, finding a new home for the two players with the longest history on the team, the GM wants to mark the end of an era.

Meanwhile, the new GM continues the good ole tradition of convincing ageing players born in the GTA to put their skates on for the team, on the cheap. O'Reilly, Toews (he's still alive, and rejuvenated at the idea) and Schenn head over, at a home discount. Domi joins the party, for one year.

Finally, the new GM trades for Karlsson. Robertson and a 1st is the price to pay.

Woll is the starter.
