Confirmed Trade: [PIT/TOR] Kasperi Kapanen, Lindgren, Aberg for 2020 1st, Hallander, Warsofsky, Rodrigues

[Nucker42]

You’re not getting McCann for Kapenen imo

 

[orby]

Gotta be for Murray.

 

[Nucker42]

What do you do with Anderson then?

 

[JT Kreider]

I've been calling this for weeks, this is Matt Murray for Kapanen. I've been spamming it non-stop.

What possible use do the Leafs have for Murray? Andersen is better and they still have Campbell as backup who they gave up a decent package to acquire

 

[General Fanager]

If it’s Murray, what does Dubas do with Anderson?

Pays Seattle to take him next summer....

 

[Fatass]

Probably for Jared Mccan. Smart move by Dubas feel like Mccan would be the perfect 3C. Speed/defensive ability/scoring touch.

That’s my thinking too. Plus, Mccann will play with some bite. He’s kind of like a poor man’s Kadri.

 

[Skinnyjimmy08]

Would be such a dumb move by Leafs if its Murray lol

 

[General Fanager]

What do you do with Anderson then?

Seattle

 

[SFKingshomer]

Knowing Dubas, it will be for Schultz or something they don't need.

I'm sold on that too. Just makes too much sense.

 

[Canucks LB]

Murray?

Schultz is UFA

 

[MSLs absurd thighs]

As a Habs fan I sure hope the Leafs are stupid enough to trade for another goalie. Andersen is not the problem out there.
EDIT: LOL. Jack Johnson.

McCann more value imo leafs would have to add

 

[Gurglesons]

Easily could. They don’t see McCann as a 3C and we need RW depth. Although I don’t think Kappy is the right fit.

Maybe Hornqvist?

Andersen will be a UFA after next season. Seattle won't take a UFA and Toronto won't pay them to take a UFA.

 

[trick9]

Curious to what they give up. Kapanen is a solid player.

Also, you can trade during the Playoffs?

 

[orby]

What did I say?

Oh god. Please.

 

[Fatass]

Doesn't Anderson have one year left though, so Leafs have to trade him now. He’d be a UFA during expansion, no?

would fit well with TML, he was terrible in playoffs.

1. Murray was Dubas and Keefe's goalie in the OHL
2. Andersen is due for an extension next off-season, one they may not want to give him based on their lack of success
3. They've lost in the 1st round in every year with Andersen. I think he's definitely a better goalie than Murray, but they need to make changes.

 

[Nucker42]

Seattle

So give up a roster player to add a goalie just to lose your number 1?

 

[serp]

What did I say?

That would be hillarious.

 

[Merrrlin]

If it's JJ, I am pissed.
