Toropchenko is a 24-year-old winger standing at 6’6″ and weighs 222 pounds. He is not going to bring a lot of offence to the table, but he plays a steady game, is great at killing penalties, and throws a bunch of hits. Biggest obstacle is trying to fit in his $1.25 million cap hit, a hypothetical trade would have to involve someone going the other way (ie: Timmins)
He is also not afraid to speak up as evidenced by this interview from February after a tough loss [where he held himself and his teammates accountable](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ljlEBfVzIVQ). Could be a younger and bigger Noel Acciari without the faceoffs

The Leafs traded 6’9” Curtis Douglas to get Conor Timmons. I don’t think they’d give away assets to get a big scary man who can’t really play hockey at a high level.
