Report: Maple Leafs likely to flip newly-acquired Jokinen
Bruce Fedyck / USA TODAY Sports
Olli Jokinen's tenure in Toronto may not be a long one.
The veteran center, acquired Sunday in a four-player deal involving Cody Franson, is likely to be moved by the Maple Leafs prior to the March 2 trade deadline, according to Darren Dreger of TSN.
Jokinen was clearly unimpressed about moving from a Stanley Cup contender to a team near the bottom of the Eastern Conference standings.
Let's just say Olli Jokinen was less than thrilled to hear he had been traded to the Leafs.

Jokinen, who's set to become a free agent at season's end, recorded three goals and three assists in 48 games for the Predators.
