Friedman: Leafs Overhaul Looms After Disaster Season

Elliotte Friedman drops the hammer on the Maple Leafs, signaling they won't roll into 2026-27 looking anything like this trainwreck roster. Ownership draws a hard line with GM Brad Treliving, refusing to let him limp into next season as a lame duck like Dubas and Shanahan before him, and the front office already tests trade waters amid the playoff ashes. With the standings screaming sell and core questions boiling over, Toronto faces a reckoning that could reshape the franchise for years.
