Versteeg is a forward that can be immediately plugged in to a top-six role on the Leafs. The 24 year old tallied 44 points in 79 games in the 2009-2010 season, and has 101 points in 170 NHL career games. He's also collected 26 points in 39 NHL playoff games.
Stalberg is the most significant piece going to Chicago, as he showed flashes of brilliant speed and offensive ability. This move was necessary for Chicago, as management looks for ways to keep their core intact. For the Leafs, they have acquired some much needed offense, but more moves will need to come if they hope to compete for the playoffs next year.
Tomorrow is the start of unrestricted free agency, so it will be interesting to see if the Leafs have any more moves planned. Over the Boards Hockey will provide constant updates throughout the day tomorrow, in the event that players are signed or traded.
