Too much forward and looking for a top-six wing for the Toronto Maple Leafs
The fourth period: There is still speculation that the Toronto Maple Leafs would not mind adding a top-six wing player. They currently have 15 attackers on one -way agreements. Maple Leafs GM Brad Treliving spoke with Eric Engels from Sportnet last week.
“We always look. I don’t think you will ever stop. Whether it happens or not, we will see. We have many bodies now, so we will see it. More than likely, unless something changes, we will go with what we have and see where it all comes out.”
David Pagnotta has noted that the Leafs wants to exchange David Kampf and Calle Jarnkrok ahead, with both no-trade lists with 10 teams. Jarnkrok enters the last year of his deal and Kampf has two years left. Pagnotta also reported last week that the Leafs and goalkeeper Anthony Stolarz started expansion interviews.
NHL rumors: The penguins have to make a few movements earlier than later
The sale of Pittsburgh Penguins, and the difficulty in trading Erik Karlsson
Josh Yohe from athletics: The sale of the Pittsburgh Penguins is expected to be completed before 2026, according to some current employees. Something can always go on, but a deal is expected. The Hoffman family is the leading group. The Lemieux group, including Mario Lemieux, Ron Burkle and David Morehouse, probably cannot match the asking price between $ 1.7 and $ 1.8 billion. There is nothing yet to suggest that Lemieux is involved in the Hoffman, but that they can see him call when they get the team.
Sources say that Penguins GM Kyle Dubas thinks it is good to go into the season with their current selection. It is a bit of a surprise that none of Erik Karlsson, Bryan Rust and Rickard Rakell were moved.
Karlsson is perhaps the most difficult of the three to move, given his $ 10 million cap hit, two disappointing years and his no-movement. Had thought he had the biggest opportunities to be traded out of season this season. What the return for Karlsson would be, with holding a salary, would determine whether it was worth doing. Does the current ownership want to keep salary? Would a new owner be willing to keep money on Karlsson? Believe that management thinks it would be best to move him.

Trading Karlsson can open the door for Harrison Brunicke. Their current right side includes Karlsson, Kris Letang, Matt Dumba and Connor Clifton.
