Maple Leafs Acquire John-Michael Liles from Avalanche

The Toronto Maple Leafs announced on Friday evening during the first round of the 2011 Entry Draft that they have acquired defenseman John-Michael Liles from the Colorado Avalanche in exchange for a second round pick in the 2012 Entry Draft. The second rounder heading to Colorado is Boston's second round pick, which the Maple Leafs acquired in the Tomas Kaberle trade this past February. In 76 games last season, Liles had six goals and 40 assists for 46 points. In 523 career NHL games, all with Colorado, he has 68 goals and 207 assists for 275 points. He still has one more year left on his current contract. Not a bad move for the Maple Leafs, as Liles will bring lots of offensive skill to their blueline. He will also bring plenty of skill to the power play and some mobility to their defense. Despite being a bit inconsistent in his scoring, he should be a good fit for Toronto.
