The Maple Leafs acquired Edmundson from the Capitals on Thursday in exchange for a 2024 third-round pick and a 2025 fifth-round pick, Pierre LeBrun of The Athletic reports.
Edmundson had played in 44 games with the Capitals this season, recording one goal and five assists. The 30-year-old will look to bring some physicality to Toronto, as he's logged 59 hits and 49 blocked shots this season. He will likely slide into the third defensive pairing for the Leafs.
