Sheldon Keefe in charge might lead the Leafs and Devils to a deal
Sheldon Keefe, the former head coach of the Maple Leafs, has arrived in New Jersey, and rumours are already circulating that he may try to do business with the team.
Sheldon Keefe was sacked as soon as the off-season began following a dismal tenure in Toronto, but the former head coach of the Maple Leafs is now officially leading the New Jersey Devils.
After Kyle Dubas left it's not surprising that rumours are swirling about Keefe's team collaborating with the Maple Leafs. Some chatter suggests the Devils might be eyeing a trade, for Calle Jarnkrok from Toronto.
I could see NJ asking about Jarnkrok.
Keefe loves him and according to @CF_DepthCharts, Curtis Lazar is their current 3RW which is not ideal. It's unclear whether the Maple Leafs will consider moving any role players such, as Jarnkrok with the addition of Mitch Marner in the upcoming summer. However it seems like a move for Keefe and the Devils based on analysis. The Maple Leafs are expected to be a topic of discussion this summer. Regardless of whether trades, like this materialize the team is likely to undergo adjustments with a scenario unfolding between Toronto and New Jersey.
