Toronto Maple Leafs general manager Brad Treliving is looking to make some trades this season, and Elliotte Friedman has the scoop on his demands.
Maple Leafs fans are calling on Brad Treliving to make a big trade, especially as the team is on a five-game losing streak.
The Leafs need some help in the top six, and they also need a ton of help when it comes to their defense, which is lacking a puck-mover who is also right-handed.
Steven Stamkos and Rasmus Andersson are two names that are being thrown around right now, although there is no telling if any of these will work.
Brad Treliving has one request from NHL GMs
Recently, Elliotte Friedman was on Sportsnet, where he was asked about the Leafs' trade situation and what the Leafs are looking for.
As Friedman revealed, his one request is not to trade for futures. Instead, he wants to go roster-for-roster with rival teams to get what he wants.
What I'm hearing is that they want to make hockey trades, roster for roster.
This should be good news for the Toronto Maple Leafs fans out there, who want the team to make a big swing.
With this team struggling, they cannot afford to take half measures. Instead, they need to be going after some of the best players on the market.
However, this also means that they might have to trade guys like Brandon Carlo and Max Domi, especially with the cap situation.
Either way, this is going to be fascinating to watch over the coming weeks, especially if the Leafs keep losing games at the worst of times.
