BREAKING: Toronto Maple Leafs Trade for Another Defenseman
The Toronto Maple Leafs have added two veteran defenseman at the deadline, with the additions of Ilya Lyubushkin and Joel Edmundson, but now they've found a potential blue liner of the future.
Toronto acquire Cade Webber from the Carolina Hurricanes
In one of the more surprising deals of the day, Toronto have given the Hurricanes a 2026 sixth-round draft pick in exchange for 23-year old defenseman Cade Webber.
TRADE: We've acquired defenceman Cade Webber from the Carolina Hurricanes
Webber currently plays at Boston University where he has tallied 1 goal and 15 assists in 115 games over the past four years, and could be a solid name on the back end for Toronto going forward.
It's unclear what the motive behind this move is from the Maple Leafs, but that's another pick going out for a defenseman that may not help them win a Cup in 2023-24, so now we wait and see if there's another move coming.
