Toronto Maple Leafs acquire Leon Draisaitl, Juuso Riikola, and 2019 1st round pick (Anaheim) for Jamie Benn, Eli tolvanen, Clayton Keller, and 2019 4th round pick (Toronto).
After back and forth negotiations for a period of time, the leafs are excited to add Leon Draisaitl for the playoff push. Sad to see tolvanen and Keller go, as the leafs know how good they can be.
Thanks Canucks for the deal after almost falling through! Glad we got it done.

Re: Leafs and Canucks
A lot of back and forth here.. but at the end of the day, i get a steady PPG + peripheral guy with term next season, and two extremely high potential forwards to contribute to the rebuild. Definitely a method to this one.. and believe we're better for it long term.
