from Darren Dreger of TSN,
On July 1st, the Toronto Maple Leafs may have as many as 17 free agents to contend with, and 11 of those players will be unrestricted.
For many teams this would be considered a horrendous challenge.
The Leafs look at it as a great opportunity.
The corps of the 11 unrestricted free agents includes Alexei Ponikarovsky, Lee Stempniak, Matt Stajan, Vesa Toskala, Garnet Exelby, Wayne Primeau and Mike Van Ryn.
Matt Stajan is believed to be a prime trade target and isn’t likely to be back.
Ponikarovsky is valued and will likely be offered an extension, however after that the interest in those remaining is quickly fading.
