Maple Leafs Confirm When We Will See Scott Laughton and Brandon Carlo in the Lineup

Toronto Maple Leafs general manager Brad Treliving has made a pair of moves to his club that he feels will help them get over the hump and not only advance past the 1st round of the postseason, but go on an extended run.

They've acquired forward Scott Laughton from the Philadelphia Flyers as well as defenseman Brandon Carlo from the divisional foe Boston Bruins, giving them a pair of experienced players that will immediately slot into the lineup.

The Maple Leafs next hit the ice in the Rocky Mountains against the Colorado Avalanche at Ball Arena, and according to head coach Craig Berube, both Laughton and Carlo will be available and make their Toronto debuts.

Per analyst Mark Masters:

Laughton has 27 points (11G, 16A) in 60 games this year with the Flyers, while Carlo has 9 points (1G, 8A) in 63 games played this year with the Bruins.

While the Leafs did pick up Laughton from the Flyers and Carlo from the Bruins, they also waived goodbye to a pair of players..

Leafs GM Brad Treliving made a deal with his Toronto predecessor Kyle Dubas, sending both Conor Timmins and Connor Dewar to the Pittsburgh Penguins.

It was a necessary one in order to make cap space for Laughton and Carlo, and the team even lucked out with 50% and 15% salary retention respectively.

The Maple Leafs lineup on Saturday night could look a lot different and would most likely see Laughton slide in between Max Domi and Bobby McMann and Brandon Carlo will pair with Morgan Rielly.

Either way, it's a new look for the Leafs, and one that hopefully pushes them over the top.
