Toronto Maple Leafs' Nick Robertson demands a trade
The Toronto Maple Leafs and Nick Robertson will be parting ways this summer after the latter demanded a trade.
Per Chris Johnston, Nick Robertson of the Toronto Maple Leafs has requested a trade.
Sources say that RFA Nick Robertson has no plans to re-sign with the #leafs this summer and has informed the team that he would like to be traded.
Nick Robertson has requested a trade, per @reporterchris.
Last summer, a league source told @TheHockeyNews that Robertson's camp was upset about possibly being sent to the AHL and that's why he remained with TOR in 22/23 even when he was scratched
In this column by the Hockey News, Robertson was mentioned as a trade candidate:
On the surface, there's so much to love about Nick Robertson's game.
The 21-year-old has an NHL-ready wrist shot, can make plays at top speed, and displays an element of tenacity and fearlessness that's seldom found in 5-foot-9 forwards.
But Robertson has struggled to stay healthy, with injuries to his knee, fibula and shoulder limiting him to just 82 games over the last three seasons 31 in the NHL and 51 in the AHL.
Elliotte Friedman suggested on the 32 Thoughts Podcast that Robertson «could use a fresh start and will probably like one.»
We will see if Robertson thrives elsewhere.
