Now that the dust has cleared and everyone's had time to calm down, what is the perception of how things ended for the Toronto Maple Leafs?

With less than three weeks remaining before free agency opens on July 1, the NHL rumor mill is churning at full speed. From Mitch Marner’s expected departure in Toronto to tension in Tampa Bay and uncertainty in Colorado and Vancouver, here’s a breakdown of some of the league’s most talked-about situations heading into the weekend.

A trade pitch has the Maple Leafs dealing William Nylander to the Utah Hockey Club in a four-player blockbuster deal.

When the Toronto Maple Leafs' season ended in the second round at the hands of the Florida Panthers, talk immediately switched to the big forwards, Mitch Marner and John Tavares, approaching free agency.

Once again, another spring, another heartbreak for Toronto Maple Leafs fans. The Maple Leafs pushed the Florida Panthers to the edge in Game 7, but it was the same old story.

The Maple Leafs would acquire Myers, who’s 6-foot-8 and in the second year of his three-year, $9 million deal. Myers would be on the second or third defensive pair and would be able to play well defensively, but also add some offense. With the Canucks last season, he recorded 6 goals and 18 assists for 24 points in 71 games.
