## Resource

The Toronto Maple Leafs’ center depth crisis just got a lot more urgent with Max Domi sidelined indefinitely post-surgery, forcing them to scramble before training camp. While Auston Matthews remains elite, John Tavares is stretched thin defensively, and the bottom-six lacks reliable options. The solution? Trade or free agency—Vincent Trocheck offers all-around value, while Boone Jenner could be a more affordable, equally effective fit. With playoffs exposing their center weaknesses, this offseason is make-or-break for the Leafs’ middle. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
