In breaking news, the former Montreal Canadiens defenseman Joel Edmundson has been traded to the Toronto Maple Leafs.

In return, the Capitals obtain two draft picks.

"NEWS | The Washington Capitals have acquired a third-round pick in the 2024 NHL Draft (originally from NY Islanders) and a fifth-round pick in the 2025 NHL Draft (originally from Chicago) from the Toronto Maple Leafs for defenseman Joel Edmundson."

Seeing him in a Leafs jersey will indeed be an odd sight, particularly considering his pivotal role in the 2021 Stanley Cup run, which memorably included a stunning comeback against the Leafs in the first round.

Details will follow.
