The Toronto Maple Leafs and general manager Kyle Dubas made a big splash this week by landing defenseman Jake Muzzin from the Los Angeles Kings. The move was big, however it's probably far from the last as Dubas tries to get his troops past the first round of the playoffs for the first time since 2004 and possibly take down the Lightning if need be. Where exactly Muzzin will fit in is yet to be seen as speculation grows the lefty will play on the right side. Which leads TSN's Frank Seravalli to report what the Leafs are trying to land next. "The Toronto Maple Leafs #1 trade deadline priority is something that's been on coach Mike Babcock's wish list for awhile.Getting a heavy forward.As a Stanley Cup winner, Babcock knows that heavy hockey wins in the playoffs and you don't have to look very far to see the impact that it had on the Washington Capitals run last season with Tom Wilson, Brett Connolly and Devante Smith-Pelly stepping up as difference makers."
