Maple Leafs News & Analysis

John Chayka says he doesn't anticipate a Morgan Rielly trade, calling him 'a big part of this.' Insiders aren't convinced the saga is over.

Florida added a Tkachuk and Tampa signed John Carlson while the Maple Leafs retooled. A look at the reloaded Atlantic Division and Toronto's 84-game path.

The Morgan Rielly trade file added a name Friday: Nashville. Why the Predators fit the money but not the depth chart, and why Toronto is still stuck.

A Dakota Joshua trade is Toronto's likeliest cap-clearing move: over the cap and heavy on left-shot wingers, the Maple Leafs can free room without touching the core.

The Nick Robertson contract — two years, $6.5 million in Pittsburgh — is the verdict on Chayka's trade, and a $3.25-million cap hit for a 24-year-old scorer stings.

The Morgan Rielly trade market has cooled, and Toronto's refusal to pay a sweetener means the veteran could open the 2026-27 season with the Maple Leafs.

A Morgan Rielly trade now has a market: a four-team Western list, with insiders calling it 'when, not if' — but Chayka won't eat salary to close it.

A Maple Leafs Trocheck trade is live again as John Chayka eyes the Rangers centre, but New York's Knies-level ask is the sticking point Toronto won't meet.

The Matthew Knies trade talk casts him as a sell-high asset. His $7.75M contract and Toronto's steep asking price say the Maple Leafs should hold, not deal.

The Maple Leafs Connor Hellebuyck trade was the summer's biggest what-if — and between the Bobrovsky signing and his no-move clause, it was never realistic.

The Maple Leafs still want a difference maker, per Friedman. Chayka's restless posture is smart — but landing one likely means moving money out first.

Opinion: The Morgan Rielly trade needn't happen this summer. Toronto should hold the line on retention and sell from strength — or wait for the deadline.

The Flyers have entered the Morgan Rielly trade market, but his no-movement clause and Philadelphia's retention ask stand between Toronto and a deal.

The Morgan Rielly trade market shrank as San Jose bowed out for Trouba and Nurse, leaving Toronto a thinner field and less leverage.

The Zach Werenski Maple Leafs trade is dead: Columbus kept its Norris winner, Toronto's Knies-and-Danford offer fell short, and the top-pairing hole remains.

The Morgan Rielly trade has a timeline. Toronto is targeting Western teams and reportedly lining up Mario Ferraro as a cheaper left-shot replacement to clear cap space.

The Maple Leafs trade for Nick Paul lands a Mississauga-born centre on a $3.15M cap hit for three years, solving Toronto's long-standing third-line centre hole. Hildeby and two picks went to Tampa.
