The Toronto Maple Leafs are considering trading Calle Jarnkrok as they aim to free up salary space and roster spots following a busy offseason. The 34-year-old forward is reportedly on the trade block, joining fellow teammates David Kampf and Nick Robertson, with a $2.1 million cap hit and a 10-team no-trade clause complicating matters. Jarnkrok's availability has been an issue, having played just 19 games last season and 52 the previous year, which may limit the market interest in him.
With 12 years of NHL experience and having played for teams like Nashville, Seattle, and Calgary, Jarnkrok has a record of 137 goals and 171 assists in 718 games. However, his recent injury struggles have rendered him more of a depth option for any potential acquiring team, leading to expectations that Toronto might receive minimal compensation in return.
