Returning for sure – Elias Pettersson, Quinn Hughes, Bo Horvat, J.T. Miller, Alex Edler, Tyler Myers and Tanner Pearson.

Returning… we think – Brock Boeser, and Jacob Markstrom.

Restricted… so likely staying put – Adam Gaudette, Tyler Motte, and Zack MacEwen.

The 50/50 club – Tyler Toffoli, Josh Leivo, Troy Stecher, and Jordie Benn.

The complete wild cards – Loui Eriksson, and Micheal Ferland.

On the block – Jake Virtanen, Brandon Sutter and Jay Beagle.

Expansion compliance watch – Thatcher Demko and Louis Domingue.

Buyout watch – Antoine Roussel.

More likely to move on – Chris Tanev, Oscar Fantenberg and Sven Baertschi

Potential trade options for the Toronto Maple Leafs
