With
Jake Gardiner injured, Luke Schenn gone, and Cody Franson unsigned,
in the short term there may be as many as three spots open on the
Toronto Maple Leafs backline, with Holzer, Kostka, Fraser and Ranger
the main contenders for the spots.

Rynnas
(If
Luongo arrives via trade, Rynnas will stay with Marlies)
Injured:
Jake Gardiner (D)
Unsigned:
Cody Franson (D)
If Franson is signed and Gardiner soon returns, the defence will be quite deep, so a trade there is possible. If the NHL opts fopr expanded rosters for the first few weeks of the shortened NHL season, look for the Buds to break camp with 15 forwards, eight defenceman and two goalies, for a total of 25 active players, plus any injured guys.
Although Jason Arnott is still a free agent, he has been skating with his former team the Dallas Stars, so look for him to end up there.
