The Toronto Maple Leafs sent a warning shot to the rest of the National Hockey League last night as the Leafs acquired Ryan O'Reilly and Noel Acciari late last night.
According to TSN's Darren Dreger, Dubas seems to be going all in this year as he chases a deeper playoff run with his job on the line, take a look:
Leafland is buzzing, as it should be. Sense is, Dubas isn't done, which emphasizes an all-in approach. Kerfoot? Engvall? Holl? Kampf? What collateral does Toronto use for another move? Very curious to see if ROR is a 3c or if there's big league experimenting on the wing
I don't think Pierre Engvall or David Kampf move as they are key members of the bottom 6, but I wouldn't be surprised if Alex Kerfoot or Justin Holl are either packaged or dealt in separate deals to bring in another key piece or two.
With Ryan O'Reilly and Noel Acciari coming to Toronto, one thing is certain, the Leafs and their general manager aren't afraid to go all In this year. That combined with Dreger's musings, should leave Leaf fans feeling confident that this run could be different.
If all 4 players are on the block however, Toronto could be players in th esummer this year.
