The Candidate to Replace TJ Brodie has been Revealed
The Toronto Maple Leafs made many significant moves in the off-season. Analysts and fans agree that there's still one area they need to improve.

Peeke scored 34 points in 195 NHL games with the Blue Jackets.
He could be one of the missing pieces in Toronto. He's a physical guy who uses his body to move the puck and break up plays before they become dangerous.
He would have a more defensive role in Toronto, which he excels in.
Replacing Brodie with Peeke would also be a smart move financially, but it would still be a downgrade from Brodie.
