T-minus three days until the NHL trade deadline.

And still, we await Toronto’s next move.

The Fourth Period’s David Pagnotta filled in for Jay Rosehill as co-host for the Wednesday edition of Leafs Morning Take. We kicked off the show by talking the very latest on Mikko Rantanen. After that, we got heavy into the Leafs. What are they up to? What are they sniffing around on? What’s the hold up? For what it’s worth, Pagnotta brought up Seattle quite a few times. Of note, Yanni Gourde made his return to the Kraken lineup on Tuesday night. We’ve been saying for weeks that they could be a trade fit for him —among other players on that Seattle roster.

Brought to you by Sobeys, we previewed the opener of Toronto’s 3-game road trip in Vegas. The Leafs are 5-0-1 in the past six games. On top of that, they’re 13-3-0 in their past 16 road outings. Meantime, it will be interesting to see who starts in goal. Furthermore, we discussed Calle Jarnkrok a bit and where he ultimately fits in. In general, we dissected some names that could be leaving this team over the next few days.

Brought to you by Firehouse Subs, former NHL Matthew Barnaby, who will be part of Daily Faceoff’s Trade Deadline coverage on Friday, dropped by for a chat. He dished on deadline time as a player, what he thinks of Berube’s Leafs, Domi’s shortcomings, and where Auston Matthews’ game is at right now. Barny’s always direct and blunt.

Jay Rosehill will be back in the mix for the Thursday edition. Join us at 11 AM ET as we recap TOR/VGK + continue to look ahead to Friday’s deadline.
