MAJOR | Maple Leafs' recent change of GM hints on the core four member that'll be leaving first
The Maple Leafs' organization has had lots to deal with since they've been eliminated by the Panthers. They've announced that they'd be parting ways with their GM of the last few year, Kyle Dubas, and signed Brad Treliving as his replacement.
Brad Treliving, who was the Calgary Flames architect for quite some the team, who was mainly known for trading away Matthew Tkachuk and leading Johnny Gaudreau to free agency. Since the Maple Leafs elimination, there's been lots of rumblings about them breaking up their core 4 made of Auston Matthews, Mitch Marner, John Tavares and William Nylander.
Pierre Lebrun of the Athletic revealed a big piece of information regarding what the Leafs intended to do, who was the most likely piece to be moved and why:
�' Treliving wants to re-sign Nylander, an unrestricted free agent in 2024, as well. But of interest here is some agent history. Nylander's rep, Lewis Gross, also represents Johnny Gaudreau, whose exit from Calgary left tire tracks on Treliving when he was GM there. So suffice it to say: Treliving isn't going to allow a song and dance to play out all season with Nylander, who we now have at No. 10 on the trade board. It's «extension or else» in all probability.''
It appears that the existing relationship between Treliving and Nylander's agent, may be the indicator to the Leafs' future. Do you believe this is a good enough reason to move Nylander? Or take the risk and let him to free agency at the end of 2024-2025.
