The Toronto Maple Leafs have seen some big moves made over the past few months, and yesterday, it was revealed that new defenseman John Klingberg was taking over the Quarterback role of the second power play unit.
An infusion of talent
Obviously, that means that veteran Morgan Rielly is pushed backed to the second power play unit, and with so much talent on this team, it left fans wondering who would fill out that unit with him.
Now, it appears we've already got our answer, as another day of Maple Leafs training camp has revealed their next power play unit, and it could be an absolutely lethal group.
Depth and Talent
According to a report, the second unit was filled out with Tyler Bertuzzi, Max Domi, Callie Jarnkrok and Timothy Liljegren, with results already appearing with this group together.
There's been some criticisms of the Leafs moves over the past six months, but with new acquisitions Bertuzzi, Domi and Klingberg already taking on major roles, they could be paying off in a big way.
