Leafs management wasn't kidding when they stated they were looking at a long term rebuild, and it appears their plans include stealing the show at the 2015 NHL draft.
According to Sportsnet 590 the fan the Maple Leafs are currently working on a gargantuan deal with the Carolina Hurricanes one that would change the future of both franchises.
The Leafs who already have the
4th overall pick in the 2015 draft are reportedly looking to acquire the
5th overall pick as well, and they aren't kidding around.
The Maple Leafs have reportedly offered
Nazem Kadri, their
24th overall pick in this year's draft and are also willing to take on the brutal contract that is
Alex Semin to make the deal a reality.
A trade of this magnitude could change the fortunes of the Leafs over the next few years.
