The Leafs Lab Ep. 9: Listener Trade Proposals

from The Leafs Lab

A slightly different one this week.On this week's episode of The Leafs Lab Podcast, I work through over 40 listener-submitted trade proposals, reacting to each one, grading them on realism and how much I like the player, and giving my honest take on whether the Leafs should actually be making these moves.We cover everything — Morgan Rielly destinations, the Elias Pettersson swap, Mason McTavish to Toronto, Olen Zellweger, Michael Kesselring, Dougie Hamilton, Zach Werenski, Barrett Hayton, and a whole lot more. Some of these are genuinely great ideas. Some are not. All of them are worth the conversation.Michael is back next week, and we'll get into some deeper offseason discussions — trade targets, coaching updates, and everything in between.Apologies in advance for a somewhat clunkier solo episode while Michael is still away. That said, the trade proposals you all sent in were genuinely outstanding, and this was too much fun not to do.Thanks to everyone who sent in a proposal. This is exactly what we want more of. Have a great week.Intro/Outro music by Chad WaltSpotify: (https://open.spotify.com/artist/5gaejVfjk7KebwksgFtw13)Instagram: (https://www.instagram.com/officialchadwalt/)Like, share, and subscribe for more episodes of The Leafs Lab Podcast.
