Maple Leafs Gauge Market for Nick Robertson After GM Talks With Interested Teams

Toronto is responding to a forward logjam driven by Easton Cowan’s rise.

Overview

  • TSN’s Darren Dreger reported that GM Brad Treliving recently spoke with clubs about trading the 24-year-old winger.
  • Robertson and his agent are open to trade discussions, according to Dreger.
  • Reporting characterizes the activity as exploratory with no agreement in place.
  • Robertson is on a one-year, $1.825 million contract following arbitration and has one assist in four games this season.
  • Easton Cowan’s early impact and a surplus of forwards have narrowed Robertson’s path to a larger role in Toronto.
