Report: Bolts forward Filppula turned down trade to Toronto

Earlier this week, the Maple Leafs and Lightning completed a deal that sent Brian Boyle to Toronto for Byron Froese and a second round draft pick, but according to a report from TVA Sports’ Renaud Lavoie, the trade could have been a lot bigger. Filppula can do that because he has a no-movement clause and a modified no-trade clause that allows him to submit a list of 16 teams he’d be willing to go to.
