Toronto's 5-2 loss to the Lightning was the team’s seventh in a row, and with no announced direction forward, the fan base is in limbo.

The Toronto Maple Leafs are retaining some of their goaltending depth for the foreseeable future. According to a team announcement, the Maple Leafs have signed netminder Artur Akhtyamov to a three-year contract extension.

It was an uninspiring home loss for the Wild (38-18-12) against a Leafs team that sits near the bottom of the Eastern Conference (29-27-12) and had lost nine of its last ten games coming into this one. Toronto was also without its best player in Auston Matthews, who will miss the rest of the season after suffering a significant injury this week.

After preferring to stay in Toronto only to be moved at the deadline, Bobby McMann’s two-goal, three-point Seattle Kraken debut on Saturday highlights a stinging trend of former Maple Leafs thriving immediately in their new homes.

Over the past couple of seasons, the Toronto Maple Leafs have made moves that give you a strange feeling of déjà vu. The trade of Bobby McMann might be one of those moments.
