Will Tanev injury change Leafs trade deadline plans?
Gino Reda is joined by the coach Bruce Boudreau to get his thoughts on how much Chris Tanev’s injury will hurt the Maple Leafs as they try to hold on down the stretch to win the Atlantic division.
If he’s out for a significant amount of time , this changes the dynamics of our trade deadline decisions . We will have to look at getting a top 4 D man instead of a 2 or 3C. I think with holmberg and Robertson producing , this will help more . If we get a top 4 right handed shot d man who can work with Reilly , tanev and McCabe stay together. It will move OEL on 3rd line where is perfect for him , he thrived with Florida on 3rd line last year .

Thank god it sounds like a minor injury . He won’t play Friday and likely not Sunday , but it shouldn’t be to much longer then that .
Bring in the Chen brothers.😊
