In the next article of @APetrielli.bsky.social's free agent targets series, he takes a look at possible centermen of interest to the Maple Leafs (and one already came off the board on Sunday) 👇
#LeafsForever
Alex Tuch, Mats Zuccarello, Viktor Arvidsson, Bobby McMann, and Mason Marchment are among the top wingers available in FA this year.
Are there any fits that make sense for the Leafs? 👇

Jim Hiller was vague on the Leafs' style of play under his leadership as head coach, calling it too early, but said, "We'll have a style of play that the players will be excited to play in."
Hiller on rejoining the organization 👇
John Gruden on the Chicago head coach's comment that his players might have a read on Artur Akhtyamov now: "Artie doesn't understand English anyway, so it doesn't matter. He has no idea what he is saying."
Gruden after a 4-3 OT loss in Game 4 👇

John Chayka on the hiring of Jim Hiller as Leafs head coach: "It starts with alignment... We want no space between the coaches and the front office... We think Jim gives us the best chance to do that."
So much for teams not wanting to trade with John Chayka, or Toronto no longer being a destination of interest.

John Chayka on Darren Raddysh: "His fundamental play maybe doesn't get the recognition it deserves. This is a player who really moves the needle at 5-on-5."
“He is the type of defenseman we haven’t had in this organization for a long time."
The GM addresses his big signing on the blue line 👇
The Marlies are one win away from glory, thanks to an AA shutout and an Easton Cowan game-winner in Game 3. The return of Jacob Quillan, and the play of his line with Tverberg and Cowan, is another reason for positivity heading into G4 👇
