A have a look at some Toronto Maple Leafs players who is probably not back next season<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Jonas Siegel of The Athletic<\/strong><\/a>: Taking a look at some Toronto Maple Leafs players who is probably not back next season.<\/p>\n

Max Domi has a 12-team no-trade clause and two years left at $3.75 million. There is probably not a giant market, but someone might like his versatility for an inexpensive acquisition cost.<\/p>\n

Calle Jarnkrok, a free agent that didn\u2019t provide much value last yr.<\/p>\n

Matias Maccelli will likely be back. He\u2019s owed a $4.1 million qualifying offer, but possibly they might work out a deal before at a lower cap hit. If Craig Berube is back behind the bench, the chances increase that Maccelli won\u2019t be.<\/p>\n

Jacob Quillan is a 24-year-old pending RFA, and it\u2019s likely they won\u2019t qualify him. The contract wouldn\u2019t be for much, though.<\/p>\n

Nick Robertson is one other pending RFA, and he likely won\u2019t be back with the Leafs next season.<\/p>\n

Right-handed defenseman Brandon Carlo has a yr left at $3.49 million and ought to be easy to maneuver. Being right-handed and at a very good number will generate interest.<\/p>\n

Oliver Ekman-Larsson shall be 35 in a couple of months and has two years left at $3.5 million. He put up 39 points, and they might have the ability to get some assets for him. They considered trading him on the deadline.<\/p>\n

Morgan Rielly, with 4 years left at $7.5 million, will likely be back unless latest management can \u2018force\u2019 him out. He\u2019s got a full no-movement clause.<\/p>\n

Troy Stecher is a pending free agent, and with every other defenseman under contract and the Leafs needing to make some changes, he\u2019s likely gone.<\/p>\n
