Maple Leafs trade Josh Leivo to Canucks for Michael Carcone
NHL analyst Elliotte Friedman joins David Amber at the BOG meetings to discuss the fate of next season's salary cap, as the players have to decide the rate of increase.
The 25-year-old Leivo makes $925,000 this season and is set to be a restricted free agent at the end of 2018-19. Leivo has four goals and six points in 27 games played this season.
We’ve lost a lot of good men to trades & free agency but I’ve never lost a brother before like @jleivo17
Will never forget our first rookie tourney together & every memory made in between
Carcone, 22, has appeared in 20 games with the AHL Utica Comets during the 2018-19 season, recording six goals and 17 points. Carcone has 26 goals and 62 points in 149 total games for the Comets over the last three seasons.
The Ajax, Ont., native was signed by the Canucks as a free agent in July 2016 after recording 59 goals and 130 points for the QMJHL’s Drummondville Voltigeurs from 2014-16.
In a corresponding move, Toronto has recalled defenceman Travis Dermott from the Marlies.
Vancouver also lost winger Brendan Leipsic to the Los Angeles Kings through waivers.
