The Leafs have bigger issues than just fixing their D. If only 2/5th of your team is back-checking, you are going to get plenty of shots against, and scored on a ton. That's a huge problem in Toronto and has really never been addressed since this rebuild started. Sure, there are individual forwards that do skate back hard, and back-check consistently, but as a team, that's clearly an issue. There are trades the Leafs could make that shouldn't cost them a ton where they could fix some of this, and especially on the PK. I am looking directly at Colton Scissons here.
And no way Robertson gets called up to NHL this season.
