Yes because no defense has really worked out well for Toronto.

Barrie has on more left on his contract then Gardiner, hardly worth all that to get Barrie. Zaitsev is going to be a very difficult trade right now just for a pick. Probably not wanted at his 4.5m by any team, including yours.
Certainly Bracco and LIljegren are not NHLers next season.
