Agree with your opening statement. Leafs can't trade their way to better days, the players they got just got to be better.
The pairings and lines, often get mixed due to PP and PK, so I'm not as a fanatic as some. But I would like to see
Reilly/Hainsey. Gardiner/Polak. Borgman/Dermot. Carrick should play some, and when Zaitsev returns. Polak/Carrick sit.
Hyman/Matthews/Nylander,. Kapanen/Marleau/Marner. I think the speed of this line would work well. JVR/Kadri/Brown. Martin/Bozak/Leivo. Leafs have to establish offensive zone "time" which they had last year. Seems to most of this year.
