- The Maple Leafs don’t plan to execute a buyout before the window closes on Friday, GM Brad Treliving told reporters including Sportsnet’s Luke Fox. Veteran goaltender Matt Murray has long been a speculative candidate to be bought out, a move that would free up $4MM in flexibility to work this summer but they won’t go that route. At least, they won’t for now. Treliving noted that there is a second window to be made available as long as they have an arbitration filing. Toronto has three arbitration-eligible players in goalie Ilya Samsonov plus defensemen Victor Mete and Mac Hollowell with the former being the most likely to file. If that happens, Treliving and the Maple Leafs could re-assess Murray’s situation later in the summer.
