Leafs Eye Trade for Oliver Ekman‑Larsson

The Maple Leafs have a trade offer on the table for veteran defenseman Oliver Ekman‑Larsson that would return a first‑round pick by the March 6 NHL deadline.

A trade offer for 34‑year‑old Oliver Ekman‑Larsson is reportedly on the table for the Toronto Maple Leafs, potentially bringing a first‑round draft pick back to the club before the March 6 deadline.

Ekman‑Larsson has posted 35 points (8 goals, 27 assists) in 59 games this season and has expressed a desire to stay in Toronto, but the Leafs may need to move him to replenish their future.
