Who adds?
No, leafs don't trade a key piece of the team for a 38 year old defenseman. How does this help with the rebuild. When Toronto Competing he will be retired in his lazy boy watching the game

Leafs have enough vet forwards. Streit will help mentor the kids and can be flipped for hopefully a 1st at the deadline if he plays very well. This open another spot for one of their many forward prospects.

Toronto has a lot of young soft players coming up. So yes having a goal scoring forward that is very gritty is key to the team. If you haven't heard Babcock wants to become a Tougher up front. Trading Komarov helps how?

I don't think you know who Leo is. Flyers would grab it and run. Leo brings a lot to our team, he really is not on the market, especially for someone who could retire in a year. This is a pretty awful proposal.
To answer the OP's original question Philly adds.
Komarov is a 29 year old grinder/power forward that had 19 goals in 67 games last year. You may not like him but he's a more valuable asset than Streit.
Flyers consider "touching" it.
The Leafs do not.

Most of our Vets forwards are cap dumps we are waiting to come off the books. The Keeper vets we have are Leo, JVR and Kadri , maybe Bozak (which I doubt).
Not really. The only quality vets we have up front are JVR, Komarov. Streit isn't really the type of guy i'd want personally to mentor the young kids, and he is definitely not worth a 1st given his age and the stage he's currently at in his career. Komarov is exactly the kind of guy i want mentoring the young forward prospects coming up. Hard working, grinder, consistent player that tries his best in every aspect of every shift. He's all grind and hardwork, with average talent. Not interested in moving him for Streit at all. Would consider a 1st rounder + 3rd line player, but still probably wouldn't do it. Those are the kind of guys you need during a rebuild.

I hate this team
Philly needs to add for sure...not sure what phlocky was thinking.
This is an odd trade to even suggest.

Context Matters!
Dunno why the Leafs would do this as a rebuilding team. Flyers would have to add to make it worth it to them. As a Flyers fan, might be a better idea just to deal Streit to someone that actually needs him.

I don't think anyone adds a lot for a near-30 forward with a career high of 36 points.
We have no interest in Komarov.
Don't act dumb and defend the trade. Pathetic troll post. It is like us offering you Polak for Schenn. Polak can mentor your defense (who you always were looking for) and then flip him for a pair of 2nds.

Who adds? The Flyers do....start by adding something other than Streit as the main piece coming back.

Who adds?
How can you ask for 1st round pick in a trade which includes Streit as the main piece? That's not realistic.

Depends how Streit plays going into the deadline, but if it's something similar to last year, I see Streit as more like 2 2nds or a 2nd & 3rd kind of player. I am fine with that and it could get to the first level if he players close to the .5 PPG player he was into the later stages.
On value, this trade favors the Flyers, but not sure what sense this trade makes for either team at this stage of the offseason.
As already stated by others, this deal makes no sense for either team. Leafs don't really need Streit, maybe if he were a cheap 1yr deal he'd be of use but not to give up an asset.
Flyers have 3rd line options already.
To answer the question directly though, Komarov has more value.
