Alex Kerfoot left unprotected by the Maple Leafs. Far from a surprise, but a very good player. https://t.co/htULuL5SGo

Kerfoot, 26, had eight goals and 23 points in 56 games last season. He had one goal and six points in seven games in the Maple Leafs' first-round series against the Montreal Canadiens.
The Maple Leafs acquired Kerfoot from the Colorado Avalanche along with Tyson Barrie and a sixth-round pick on July 1, 2019 in exchange for Nazem Kadri, Calle Rosén and a third-round pick.
Kerfoot has two years remaining on four-year, $14 milllion deal he signed in 2019 with a $3.5 million AAV.
