It's going to be a busy offseason for the Toronto Maple Leafs and newly hired GM Brad Treliving, and they could be starting things off with a bang very soon according to a recent report.
Leafs Targeting Seider In Exchange For Nylander
A recent report claims that should the Leafs decide to move Nylander ahead of the final year of his contract, and the Red Wings are interested in acquiring him, the Leafs will ask for Calder Trophy-winning defenseman Moritz Seider. That's no small ask, but we trust that Brad Treliving knows what he's doing.
"It is believed that William Nylander is the most likely of the Leafs to be traded and Khan reports if the Red Wings want him, the Leafs will be asking for Moritz Seider"
Once you get past the initial shock of reading this report, you have to wonder if Seider's name has been floated by Yzerman in trade talks already, if his name is being put in reports like this. How would it be known that Treliving would pursue Seider unless his name has already been included in trade talks?

Straight Up Deal?
Another question to ask is whether this trade would be 1-for-1, or if there would be more assets involved. While fans of both teams could certainly argue that one has more value than the other, the real answer is likely only known by the GMs.
What do you think? Would you like to see Seider in Maple Leaf Blue or Nylander in Detroit Red?
