They need an experienced D who isn't a liability and is a house hold name, that's their biggest need - their forwards this year have been stellar and I can't see them making any major changes in terms of bodies going out via the trade route - they will lean on a pretty impressive prospect collection and picks in order to get their needs and if it's not enough I'm sure they are content to push for the playoffs with what they have and make the major changes in the off-season.
In short - Toronto laughs at Brouwer + Bart + 3rd for Komarov and hangs up the phone.

Actually Komarov is getting 2.95 M a year but still...hells no.
Komarov is pretty solid on the PK...plus Kadri and him make a good sandpaper line that can score goals.
