The Toronto Maple Leafs shocked some fans earlier today when they traded for Tomas Plekanec of division rival Montreal Canadiens. It's a great pickup for the Leafs as Plekanec will add some defensive reliability and great play on the penalty kill, he'll go head to head against the other team's top lines and let the youngsters concentrate on offense.After the move, is there more coming?Many fans would like to see the Leafs add a defenseman before the deadline and according to Lance Hornby of the Toronto Sun, the Leafs are still in on defenseman Ryan McDonagh.With the Leafs only giving up Rinat Valiev and Kerby Rychel in the Plekanec trade, they still have plenty of prospects to attract the Rangers with. With the Bruins very active Sunday, do the Leafs have to make this move?
