Summary
The Toronto Maple Leafs still have several holes to fill ahead of the 2026-27 NHL season, so what's next for John Chayka and the front office? On today's Locked On Leafs, Mike DiStefano and Dave Morassutti break down the Maple Leafs' roster as it currently stands following the opening wave of free agency. They discuss the biggest remaining needs, including the search for another goaltender, a third-line center, and bottom-six depth. Then, it's time for Co-Sign or No-Sign, as the guys debate whether the Leafs should pursue some of the biggest names still available or potentially on the trade market, including: Sergei Bobrovsky, Patrick Kane, Mason Marchment, Ilya Mikheyev & Boone Jenner. Plus, the latest Zach Werenski trade buzz! Reports suggest the Columbus Blue Jackets star defenseman would prefer to remain in the Eastern Conference if traded, with the Toronto Maple Leafs reportedly among his preferred destinations. Could Toronto realistically make a blockbuster deal happen?
