"The Toronto Maple Leafs made some noise today when they decided to make the first trade between non-playoff teams. Leafs' general manager Kyle Dubas shipped forward Kasperi Kapanen off to the Pittsburgh Penguins which saw the Leafs grab the #15 pick overall in the upcoming NHL Draft amongst other pieces. We've heard for months that one of Kapanen, Andreas Johnsson or Alexander Kerfoot would be moved before next season. That's not the only move we'll see this offseason. According to The Athletic's James Mirtle, there's more changes coming to the Leafs' roster. In fact, Mirtle told TSN 1050 that we'll likely see at least 5-7 new faces in the Leafs' lineup on opening night and when it comes to trades "There's more coming."What kind of other big moves do you think we'll see this offseason?
