9. Toronto Maple Leafs

Previous: No. 7

Though the Lightning have games in hand, the Maple Leafs have almost caught up to them in the standings, which is quite impressive. They have been mentioned in trade rumors all season long, and with a little bit of LTIR money, they have the potential to make a move. This team is going to be around for a long time as constructed, and with the right trade, it could become even scarier.
