There\u2019s just too many, too many unanswered questions out there.<\/p>\n<p>You know, I even look at Morgan Rielly with the Leafs. You know, I still expect him likely to be moved.

You know, they kind of filled up their spots with some big-money defensemen.<\/p>\n<p>But you know, I look at Anaheim, you know, as of this moment, does not have, you know, enough NHL D to move forward. They lost all of (Radko) Gudas, (Jacob) Trouba, and (John) Carlson from their blue line, the team that played in the second round last year. Maybe there\u2019s a fit there for the Leafs.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-98233\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Screenshot-2026-07-05-103323.jpg\" alt=\"Anaheim Ducks projected blue line pairings\" width=\"610\" height=\"205\"  \/>Image from puckpedia depth charts<\/p>\n<p>And even if not that, I think that they\u2019ll explore other possibilities.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>We had to restart our X account.
