Breaking:Leafs Eye Dougie Hamilton Despite Injury Concerns, Gain Potential Star Alex Holtz….
The Devils understand that Dougie Hamilton poses a risk due to the nature of his injury—a torn pec isn’t easy to recover from. However, for a Leafs team seeking star talent on the blue line, it’s a risk worth taking. Additionally, they acquire Alex Holtz, who has the potential to be a top scorer with John Tavares or an underrated playmaker with Auston Matthews. At the very least, he could be a valuable asset on the third line.
Timothy Liljegren, like Holtz, hasn’t had the opportunity to reach his full potential. However, with Sheldon Keefe in New Jersey, it might not be the best fit for him. Ultimately, both sides are considering this move, but the Leafs might reject it due to the added salary from Erik Haula.
