Leafs Eye Goaltender Market

With the two parties being over $2.5 million dollars apart, and Samsonov filing for money that the Leafs may not have, Treliving could be looking for goaltending elsewhere.

According to Dylan Robillard of Brotherly Puck, an apparent deal between the Leafs and Flyers could still be in the works.

Leafs Locked In

Once the arbitrator makes their decision on Friday, the Leafs will be locked to the decided amount. With a tight cap situation looming over Treliving's head, a 3-way deal to move Murray may be in his best interest.

While the deal may be complicated, adding Hart to the Leafs would give them a rock-solid foundation between the pipes, something that has plagued them in the past.
