It's been awhile now that at the start of the NHL season, the Toronto Maple Leafs are a favourite to win the Stanley Cup. Unfortunately for them though, year after year after year after year after year, they lose in the first round.
Kyle Dubas and the Maple Leafs have given the Maple Leafs top 4 quite a bit of money, and every year you hear about them trading one of those players to free up some cap space to sign some depth players or possibly some better defencemen, but year after year comes and they are all still members of the Toronto Maple Leafs.
They have lost in the first round for 6 consecutive years now and with only 2 years remaining on Auston Matthews' contract that walks him right into free agency as a UFA, the Maple Leafs might just be at a breaking point.
If the Maple Leafs do choose to move one of their top 4 to try and make a run this season, many have believed it to be the ageing captain, Tavares, or possibly Marner who fans always seem to be very low on and quick to criticize.

But if you were to make assumptions based on this new advertisement, it appears to be William Nylander.
The ad features Auston Matthews, Mitch Marner, John Tavares, Michael Bunting and TJ Brodie. Does this mean that they feel these players are more in the teams long-term future over William Nylander?
We know that Michael Bunting is on the final year of a steal of a deal, and will be looking for a significant raise, will we perhaps see Nylander traded to free up that cap space for Bunting?
