Brad Treliving has a lot on his plate this summer. He has to make some tough decisions.

With 22 free agents on the Leafs' roster, he clearly won't be able to keep them all.
Of course, his top priority is extending Auston Matthews' contract before he becomes a free agent next year.
Also, another important task is figuring out the goalie situation. Woll seems to have a secure spot, but Samsonov is looking for a new deal, and there might be a trade involving Matt Murray.
But there's something else on his list.

Strengthening the D-Core

Treliving also wants to bolster the Leafs' blue line. He's not just thinking about minor changes like bringing back Luke Schenn. He has bigger plans to revamp the blue line.
Throughout his career, he has shown a strong focus on building a solid defense, drafting top defensemen and making trades to acquire others. Players like Dougie Hamilton, Adam Fox, MacKenzie Weeger, and Rasmus Anderssen have all been linked to Treliving in their careers.
Looking ahead, there are a few available players that Treliving could be interested in, such as Brett Pesce and Erik Karlsson.
Treliving is known for making impactful moves on defense, so there could be exciting changes coming to Toronto. Keep an eye on this space to see what happens!
