Maple Leafs Expect Trade Decision on Forward Nick Robertson Amid Roster Uncertainty

News summary

Nick Robertson faces uncertainty with the Toronto Maple Leafs as he competes for a roster spot amid a crowded forward group, despite signing a one-year, $1.825 million contract. Throughout training camp, Robertson's ice-time has decreased, raising concerns about his fit on the team, especially with increased competition from players like Cowan. Insider reports suggest that the Leafs may trade Robertson early in the season if he fails to secure a regular spot, with potential suitors including the San Jose Sharks, Chicago Blackhawks, and Pittsburgh Penguins. While Robertson has shown promise when given opportunities, the team's current depth and coaching decisions make his future in Toronto unclear. Meanwhile, the Maple Leafs are under pressure to improve following another early playoff exit and the departure of star Mitch Marner, fueling speculation about roster changes and potential acquisitions. Notably, there is also discussion about the Leafs possibly acquiring Jason Robertson from Dallas, a move that could significantly impact the team's offensive capabilities.
