there's no way in hell Toronto touches Ryan Merkley. Not even for a 7th let along trading one of their key vets for him.
He was deemed by multiple teams as a DND (do not draft) when he was drafted. It has nothing to do with his on ice skill. He's a pain in the ass to deal with with his off ice shenanigans. He has a massive attitude issue. Leafs management is air tight about their off ice situations and doubtful they'd even think of getting Merkley. He was also traded from Guelph in the OHL who is a contending team this season because of his attitude. Unless he fixes that, most teams aren't gonna have interest.
