There's going to be some big changes in Toronto, which seems a bit unfortunate. When you look at how their first round series went against the Lightning, we could probably say that the Leafs were the better team, and Game 7 showed it.
In either case, they are right there with the best teams in the NHL. They have pretty much everything. But when your organization is 0 for 9 in elimination games in their last 5 playoff appearances, changes are coming.

If the Leafs are interested to transfer either Marner or Nylander, Chuck Fletcher will have to take his phone. He's looking to add some talent to his attack, and acquiring a guy like Nylander could fix a big part of the issue.
