Insider suggests blockbuster deal between the Hawks and the Maple Leafs

   

There will be changes in Toronto after the Maple Leafs are disappointed again. Mitch Marner is at the top of every headline.

NHL Playoffs: The Toronto Maple Leafs got eliminated again. What should  they do now?

Marner wasn't there for his team when they needed him during the playoffs, and with only a year remaining on his deal, insiders have identified him as one of the likeliest players to be traded. The Maple Leafs could use help on the back end, their blueline needs more depth, and Frank Seravalli suggested a deal that would not only fix that problem but also shake the NHL big time.

Seravalli mentioned the BlackHawks as a possible destination for the speedy winger Mitch Marner. The Hawks could use someone with his skill level to pair with Connor Bedard and whomever they'll be getting from this year's draft. In return, he believes Seth Jones could be helpful for the Maple Leafs. Big, right-handed and able to take one big minute, he'd be considered the Leafs' top blueliner from the get-go.
