Leafs Eye Trade for Oliver Ekman‑Larsson, First‑Round Pick on Table

Toronto has received a trade offer for Oliver Ekman‑Larsson that would return a first‑round draft pick. The deal would come before the March 6 NHL trade deadline, giving the Leafs a chance to rebuild their future.

Ekman‑Larsson, 34, has posted 35 points in 59 games this season and has been linked to the Edmonton Oilers. Leafs officials say the veteran wants to stay in Toronto, but the club may accept the offer to secure a high‑value pick.
