NHL Trade Rumors: Sami Vatanen to Toronto Maple Leafs

sami vatanen trade toronto maple leafs

The Anaheim Ducks are looking to move Sami Vatanen. There are several NHL teams interested in acquiring the 26-year-old defenseman, including the Toronto Maple Leafs. TSN Insider Bob McKenzie thinks a Vatanen trade between the Ducks and Maple Leafs makes sense.

I could see why the Toronto Maple Leafs would have interest in him. Fits the profile in terms of age and experience and skill level and the attributes that he’s got as an offensive-minded, skating, puck-moving guy with power play ability. I think it makes sense.

The Maple Leafs may be offering 20-year-old right winger Kasperi Kapanen and a second round draft pick for Sami Vatanen.
