Confirmed with Link: Leafs acquire Brennan Menell for a cond. 7th rd pick in 2022 [Upd 8/1: signed 1 yr/2 way contract]

Hate to hear this. He looked great in preseason, I really wish we would give him a chance to prove himself at this level.

If Sandin is out for some time, I think they should bring up Menell as their 7th D to give him another look. If he plays well, they have an option to either trade him or Holl when Sandin is back. If he doesnt, they could just trade him instead of risking putting him on waivers again. He adds significantly to the leafs defensive puck moving ability and has an eye for offense. I just dont like the bottom D on this team not feeling some pressure with Sandin out.

Would love to see him in the line up and steal a spot from holl

He's definitely worth a look at some point. This good be a good time to do so
