Craig Berube is scrambling to fix a broken lineup while Brad Treliving watches his latest castoff, Scott Laughton, immediately light the lamp out west.<\/p>\n

The Toronto Maple Leafs general manager is getting absolutely roasted by a frustrated fan base this weekend. Moves to dump 2 roster players are looking completely disastrous.<\/p>\n

Shipping out established pieces with over 500 combined NHL games during a playoff push is a massive gamble. Treliving bet against his guys, and it is failing miserably.<\/p>\n

Laughton dressed for the Los Angeles Kings last night and wasted zero time proving his former boss wrong. He logged 14 hard minutes on the West Coast.<\/p>\n

The gritty forward found the back of the net on 1 of his 3 shots for his new club. He brought the exact physical energy Toronto severely lacks.<\/p>\n

Watching him celebrate in a different sweater had to sting the front office. Treliving essentially handed a Western Conference contender a reliable weapon for their top 9. It is the kind of move that continues to show the incompetence of the Maple Leafs’ tepid front office.<\/p>\n

If that was not enough humiliation for a 48-hour window, Sunday brought another brutal reminder of poor asset management. The pain kept coming for the blue and white.<\/p>\n

Another Former Leaf Strikes Back<\/p>\n

Nicolas Roy, another casualty of the recent trade deadline purge, took the ice for the Colorado Avalanche this afternoon. He clearly had a massive chip on his shoulder.<\/p>\n

Roy ripped a beautiful shot to score for Colorado, instantly contributing to their top-tier offense. His transition game looked completely revitalized in the high altitude.<\/p>\n

Giving up on a versatile center who stands 6-foot-4 is a head-scratching front office blunder. Seeing him immediately thrive makes the recent trade look entirely lopsided.<\/p>\n

The Maple Leafs are currently begging for any kind of consistent secondary scoring. They have produced exactly no goals from their bottom trio over the past week.<\/p>\n

Instead of leaning on 2 physical veterans for the stretch drive, management dismantled the depth chart. The locker room is definitely noticing these glaring defensive lapses.<\/p>\n

Treliving is paying the price for tinkering with a roster that needed minor tweaks. His reputation as a savvy negotiator is taking a massive hit across the league.<\/p>\n

Toronto is now forced to watch their castoffs thrive on national television broadcasts. It is a harsh reality check for an organization chasing a championship this spring.<\/p>\n
