The Guardian: What will the Toronto Maple Leafs do if they continue to fall out of a playoff spot? The Guardian suggests the Leafs will likely shop pending free agents like defenceman Cody Franson and forwards Daniel Winnik and Mike Santorelli. Bigger deals probably won’t happen until the off-season, when there are more teams with salary-cap space willing to talk trade.
