What do the Leafs need?

For the first time before 2004-05, the Toronto Maple Leafs have a good to very good chance of making the post season, currently sitting in 7th position in the Eastern Conference. If you were the GM of the Toronto Maple Leafs, which player/players do you go after and what do you give up in return?

Leafs would love to "Getzlaf"

There are rumours swirling this morning that Anaheim Captain Ryan Getzlaf is on the block, along with the other two forward in Anaheims "Big 3", Bobby Ryan & Corey Perry.

Between the three of them, Getzlaf would be the perfect fit for the Leafs, bringing size, scoring and winning track record, Getzlaf is off to an awful first half this year (who isn't on the Ducks?) and a change of scenery could be just what the Burkey ordered!

The cost would definitely be steep, think Kadri + Gunnarson + ?
