Insider Reveals Trade Talks Heating Up Between Leafs and Western Conference Team
The Toronto Maple Leafs have been linked to trade talks for the past few months, and now it appears the discussions are heating up ahead of the deadline.

Leafs Past Trade Speculation Was Focused on Chris Tanev From Calgary

The difference, though, is that Tanev's price was previously thought to be just a pick, but talks today have a blockbuster-style deal being considered.
