"Keep an eye on #CBJ D Andrew Peeke and #LeafsForever"
In 195 games with the Blue Jackets, Peeke scored 34 points but is mostly known for his defensive skills.
Even though he might be a downgrade from Brodie, Peeke could be a valuable addition to the Leafs' lineup.
You need this type of player to succeed in the NHL, and Toronto desperately wants to win.
