Update:
MON claims Brooks

Travis Hamonic (VAN), Kyle Turris (EDM) and Adam Brooks (TOR) among a large group of players on waivers today.

Adam Brooks seems to have lost the lottery for who gets to stay on the Maple Leafs.
Brooks is a decently high risk to be claimed mainly because of his youth, and his very unlikely goal scoring pace in the NHL. He has four goals scored in 18 games played on 12 total shots on goal.
He has too few NHL minutes to get a good impression of his play, but both Michael Amadio, still on the NHL roster and Kirill Semyonov, waiver exempt, are capable of doing what he does with a decent level of certainty.
