Treliving Officially Eyeing Two Top Defenseman on the Trade Market
It's not a secret, Brad Treliving wants to reinforce his blue line before the start of next season.
There's been a new development in that area.
Treliving Eyeing Two Top Defenseman on the Trade Market
David Pagnotta of The Fourth Period reported recently that the Maple Leafs are interested in Flames' Noah Hanifin and Flyers' Travis Sanheim.
Here's his statement:
"As we wait to see how/if this Flyers/Blues deal pans out, a few teams spoke with Philly about Sanheim, including the Toronto Maple Leafs. If Sanheim doesn't go to STL, I suspect those talks will pick back up (if they haven't already). Leafs also have poked on Hanifin in Calgary."
Hanifin and Sanheim in Toronto?
Hanifin has already told the Flames he didn't want to sign an extension with them. As for Sanheim, the Flyers are entering in a full rebuild mode.
Both players would be a great fit in the Leafs organization, but it would be surprising to see Treliving getting the two of them as Toronto's cap situation is tight.
