Kasperi Kapanen

[Bullseye]

That goal at the 1:50 mark in the video is sick.

 

[Menzinger]

Would slot him behind Nylander as the Leafs third best proespect. Good pickup.

 

[Bullseye]

It ain't big, thats for damn sure.

Give him some donuts he'll put the weight on don't worry

 

[Bullseye]

Would slot him behind Nylander as the Leafs third best proespect. Good pickup.

Not ahead of of Bracco no way...

For sure. Clear #3.

Still surprised Babcock wants to mold the Leafs into the Red Wings?

Kapanen has been busting rather than progressing... He barely showed any progression, he'll never be the player kessel was or even is.

Don't get too excited lol, I'm more excited about brown than I am this guy.

 

[91Stammer*]

I am very high on this guy and I even said on the main board that this guy is gonna be better than Nick Ritchie. So hey I am not as mad as some people here are reading. He is 6'0 to 6'1 and has a very good size, but what's important is his shot. This guy is a pure shoot first winger so if he turns out to be a 20 goal scorer, it's a very respectable return (with the mix of picks) for a player who scores 35.

No player is busting at 18. Kapanen produced against men on two continents and raised his level in the playoffs.

 

[TheLeastOfTheBunch]

Wasn't impressed with him at the U18s/U20s, but let's see how he fares with the Marlies next season. Add another guy to the WJC watch list

 

[Finnpin]

Kapanen is 6'0. At least.

And 181 lbs

Always go with elite prospects when it comes to European players. He is listed as 6'0, 181 lbs.

 

[TMLeafer]

Hopefully no one reminds Kasperi of what former Leaf Tucker did to his dad.

 

[Schenn]

Where is he playing next year?

 

[VictorLustig]

Yeah, internationally he's been underwhelming.

 

[Droog]

Listed 6'0" and 176lbs on his FEL team's website. 5'11" and 180lbs on Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins site

 

[TimeZone]

Pens fans were arguing Kapanen was better than Nylander a few months back lol. Lots of upside.

lmao. Are u serious?

 

[Apotheosis]

Watching him, Nylander, Brown etc. On the Marlies next year is going to be exciting. Kind of lack a snap shot into the Leafs future.

 

[ChrisCall]

He was drafted just ONE year ago.
Penguins obviously let him go because he didn't impress enough, but he was drafted ONE YEAR AGO.

Penguins could regret this in a big way.
Or maybe not. Just too soon.
Really looking forward to seeing the Marlies this year.

 

[Leaf Rocket]

People really don't know how talented this kid is, he's gonna be good, we need to give him some sweet time though

 

[Bullseye]

lmao. Are u serious?

Guy produced in the AHL playoffs for Pens farm team very well. He will be great on the Marlies.
