Ranking The Atlantic Division Bluelines
4. Toronto Maple Leafs

POTENTIAL PAIRINGS
Jake Gardiner – Carl Gunnarsson
John-Michael Liles – Korbinian Holzer
WILD CARD : Morgan Rielly
Phaneuf isn’t the player he was two or three years ago, and although the Leafs are very solid 1 through 6, they lack that true #1 that you will see the top three teams in the ranking posess. They could be the deepest in the division, but can Franson repeat his stellar 2013, assuming they can get the RFA under contract?
