Toronto Maple Leafs general manager Brad Treliving is looking to make some big moves, and on Thursday, he told the media what to expect in free agency.
It is more likely than not that Mitch Marner officially leaves the Toronto Maple Leafs in free agency. Although he has spent a decade here, it seems like it is time for both sides to move on.
For many Leafs fans, this is going to be a hard pill to swallow. However, for general manager Brad Treliving, this is something that he has been anticipating for months.
Now, the Leafs are going to have a meeting with Marner, and they will look to end things on good terms. Subsequently, Treliving will look to make moves to replace the winger.
Brad Treliving talks free agency and Mitch Marner
On Thursday, Treliving held a press conference, and it was here that he dropped some truth bombs about the team's free agency plans.
Basically, he said it all hinges on what Marner does. Once they have an idea of what he wants to do, then they can start going out and adding players.
We'll see when we get there. You've got to see what's available If Mitch [Marner] is going, then everything he does factors in - as well as trying to get better. We're looking at all positions.
Ultimately, this is going to be a fascinating free agency for the Toronto Maple Leafs, and the fans are going to be curious to see what the general manager does.
If he manages to pull off some big moves, then the fans are going to be appreciative. But we might see active protests if things go the other way.
Ultimately, we are very excited about Tuesday and what it could bring. This is a time of transition and change for the franchise.
Meanwhile, the NHL Draft goes down in Los Angeles tonight, but the Leafs do not haver a single first-round pick.
