Swap Timmins with Lilly. Even if that means dropping the pick a few rounds. Timmins is not good enough, and Carolina need a RD back. Klingberg does exactly what Burns and DeAngelo do. Lilly would have to come back.

Toronto should not be the one adding the 1st round pick in this.
Carolina fans have also said that Pesce is their only true defensive dman. So if they trade a dman it wouldn't/shouldn't be Pesce. He is the one that I would personally want though,

Erm... no, Pesce is not the only true defensive D man... he's the only RD that knows what happens in his own zone. That's the problem. I love Burns, I don't want him defending ever. TDA thinks playing defense will mean the government can track him and read his thoughts or something because he's slightly insane. Slavin is a DFD, Orlov is good defensively, and Skjei can be an adventure, but he's fine. Pesce is the only RD that can do it. This makes Skjei 10000 times more likely to be the one that moves

Well said well said 👏👏👏

Sorry I meant to say their only true defensive RD.

Which is the position the Leafs can use the most.

I would accept Slavin also of course, but I really don't see Carolina doing that.

So unless it's Pesce, I doubt TO and Carolina can work out a deal. I am sure they have talked though.
