The Toronto Maple Leafs are performing well this season, leading the Atlantic Division with a 12-6-2 record. Despite their success, their third line is struggling to produce offensively. NHL insider Luke Fox highlighted this issue, suggesting the Leafs may look for rental forwards to improve their depth.
"The third line is a struggling hodgepodge of forwards who can’t score, and Max Domi’s latest trial as a top-six pivot has been rough," Fox wrote in a recent Sportsnet column.
"Treliving, surely, has begun looking at potential rental options such as Brock Nelson (easily the best choice) out of New York or Mikael Granlund in San Jose. Anaheim’s Frank Vatrano, perhaps? Utah’s Nick Bjugstad? Montreal’s Jake Evans?" Fox added.
