The Maple Leafs have one particular area they need to upgrade before next season: the blue line.
Leafs' Blue Line
The Maple Leafs need to find at least one more defenseman to complete their lineup.
A perfect candidate has been identified to fill the hole.
Peeke in Toronto?
Columbus Blue Jackets' defenseman Andrew Peeke has been linked to the Maple Leafs.
"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.
Do you think the Leafs should go after Peeke?
