Report: Weal visits Canucks, met with Maple Leafs, Canadiens
Jordan Weal's list of suitors reportedly includes a trio of major Canadian markets.
The pending unrestricted free-agent forward met with the Toronto Maple Leafs and Montreal Canadiens this week, according to TSN's Darren Dreger.
Weal spent Wednesday with his hometown Vancouver Canucks, in a meeting that Dreger reported Monday.
The 25-year-old has less than half of a full NHL season under his belt over parts of three campaigns, but he led the Philadelphia Flyers in several categories on a per-60-minute basis in 2016-17.

Weal's camp reportedly fielded over a dozen calls before his tour began this week.
He's likely in line for a raise considering he carried a cap hit of only $650,000 this past season.
