The Toronto Maple Leafs' general manager, Brad Treliving, is considering trading a 1st round pick to address team needs creatively before the trade deadline. Treliving emphasizes caution but openness to exploring all options, including potential deals involving Tommy Novak.
Treliving: Leafs will be 'as creative as possible' before deadline. 👀 https://t.co/77hrCloORk https://t.co/Xw3ECZboF5
Brad Treliving says the Leafs are going to be “as creative as possible” to address other needs ahead of the trade deadline.
Brad Treliving says the Leafs are open to dealing a 1st round pick: “I think you gotta be careful with 1st round picks for short-term help. But if it makes sense at the end of the day when you do the final analysis…you have to look at every option.”
This is Trelivings big splash into trade deadline … maybe a bit of physical but not much else #LeafsNation @FriedgeHNIC https://t.co/BImlZOFHfR https://t.co/tihdfjNZE6
If the Preds can get a 1st round pick out of Tommy Novak (as @FriedgeHNIC said today could be a possibility), they have to make that trade.
