A second for tanev would ok.

Any trade for Dillon is bad. He is a 6th man and better to just bring up lilligren

- TML IS ALL THAT MATTERS

Like many players they are more valuable to their team than what they might fetch. In Tanev’s case more like invaluable given their PO push & his role being Hughes partner. He’s easily worth a 2nd but it makes no sense.

The nucks are one Tanev away from being as defensively challenged as the buds ... see Vancouver visits state of Florida.

Ran into 2 hot good teams at the wrong time. Stopped a 7 game win streak dead in it’s tracks but right back on the rails right after. Imo it showed the Canucks the league is highly competitive & can change fortunes in a hurrt. Using that comparison the Leafs miss the PO’s unless a WC spot which looks like a risky go of it these days. Not hating on the Leafs but warts were showing before D injuries. No matter what it’s shaping up as a great run for the PO races league wide.

brendan dillion would definitely help the leafs garbage defense but the only way they should give up kapanen in this deal is if the sharks take ceci with him and more comes with dillion since he's an impending ufa.

Be nice to move Pecan Subban for assets but that $9smil hurts huge.

With 30% retained on Skjei contract so he can fit under the cap.

Why? he has 2 years left after this. There is no need to get rid of him when his contract will run out before he could ever actually hurt our cap situation.

Cap hit doesn’t matter. His age doesn’t mesh with the roster for when they are a PO team. His contract is no easy move but if can get assets/picks then do it.

Best deadline pickup could be Nolan Patrick coming off of IR.

The 21 year old who hasn't played an NHL game since April 2019 and has concussion history..... that's the best deadline pickup?

All seriousness hope the kids alright

Who's the best deadline pick up?

Simple..... the team that wins the cup!

Tampa could win it this year if their goalie plays to his best

Dillon had 1 good year (2018-19). If that's the main piece that the Leafs are getting back in a deal for Kapanen, I hope the other piece is a first round draft pick and only considered subsidiary because it's not an actual player.

The Sharks don't have a first round pick until the year 2030 Wilson trades those like candy

Probably should read the thread before commenting next time, before you end up embarrassing yourself again by calling Nolan Patrick "best" in a category where Vladimir Tarasenko has already been brought up.

Kapanen for Dillon? Sure Dillon would fill a need for size and toughness on the back end for the Leafs but he's a UFA at seasons end. Trading a good young asset for a UFA D-man ain't happening
