The Leafs continue to make minor moves in their rebuilding process, dealing veteran winger Chad Kilger to the Florida Panthers for a third round pick.
Kilger has a good reputation as a skilled checking forward with good speed who can also chip in offensively, which should make him a good addition to the Panthers checking lines.
He’s also signed through next season with a very affordable salary, which also made him attractive to the cost-conscious Panthers.
