The Toronto Maple Leafs are having a very good season after starting slow. They are currently 30-12-8, which is good for 4th in the NHL, and second in the Atlantic Division.
For the past few seasons they've been one of the most dominant regular season teams, but when it comes to the playoffs, they choke when it matters most.
They are a team that's been led by their offensive outputs by their ''big 4'' in Matthews, Marner, Tavares & Nylander. But what we've seen by past Stanley Cup teams, is it requires more than just your best players producing to win 4 rounds.
William Nylander is pricing himself out of Toronto on his next contract with his dominant season this year, and Auston Matthews is jut one year away from being a UFA. If this team wants to be able to re-sign Matthews, they will need to start seeing some playoff success.
Buchnevich is a very good scoring winger and could be a great addition for the Maple Leafs if they could figure out a a way to open up the cap space. With some term left on his contract at an under-value deal, he could be a great help for the Maple Leafs.
