(quite a) bit of an overpayment imo..
- MaximusAurelius


Agree it is an over payment - but getting a young stud d-man will be worth it. Kapanen is not part of the future here IMO, in the Kessel deal Leafs wanted Murray but got Kapanen - not a good start as a Leaf.

Well its not his fault.
But I do agree Kapanen will most likely be the young prospect to be moved.
Originally the leafs wanted Maatta....then Murray I believe

does anyone think a top 10 pick is moved?

I really dont think it happens

- senstroll


Yes - Edmonton will move their pick, either Colorado or Columbus will push hard for that pick

Kapanen was the youngest guy on the Marlies and was one of their best players all playoffs. He had a decent season in the AHL as a 19 year old kid. Why are people down on him so much? He has great tools. Id rather they hold ont him and see how he does next season as one of the top guys on the marlies.

Edmonton's could be in play as they desperately need a top pairing D.

#31, #71 and Kapanen to Arizona for #20

Would it not make sense to keep our picks and throw in the middle of the road prospects, especially if there is another possibility of an expansion team coming in the next 2-3 years? Are we also not close to the contract limit?

He could be used to move up for a Dman or as part of a package for a Dman.
We cant keep all our prospects and picks, you have to trade some quality to get quality.

THIS!!! I would be in no hurry to move Kap. Let's talk Leipsic, Loov, Percy, Bibeau, Sparks, and Harrington before we even consider moving him.

Even if we only obtain 3rd-4th rounders for a couple of these players, I believe Hunter will make the most of that opportunity.

Id like to see them and the other soccer losers simply mowed down.
Either rubber bullets or real....matters not. What a waste of human beings.

Where's Lumsie?

Probably crying, hiding under his bed.

I guess him being an England football fan conditioned him well for being a Leafs fan.

Shambolic.

Yup.
Instead of prosecuting them, simply donate them to Isis. Instead of killing innocent people, they can have 1000's of soccer hooligans to work on for the next several years.
Give the world some sort of peace.

Apparently the outcome of English citizens' vote re the referendum to leave yes/no EU might be influenced by how the English national team will do during the Euros.. (if the English team does bad, people will vote in favor or leaving EU).

Another reason to cheer for the English to lose!!

I'm here. I'm watching. And I'm (frank)ing appalled.

Sterling/Alli have done nothing, Kane has been invisible. Only Lallana and Walker seem to want to try and attack. Better be subs made at half time or I might have to travel to France and get England kicked out myself!!!
