My exact first thought. Glendening AND Green would be more enticing, me thinks, but I highly doubt Kapanen fetches both of them alone.We are not trading Kapanen for Glendening only.

So it’s like if Dreger had said Leafs had interest in Coyle for McClemment in 2012? (Dreger was very well connected when Nonis was with T.O) Seems like quite the obvious statement for a far fetched proposal, why include it if not for hits?No it wasn't. Khan is well connected with Red Wings management and doesn't venture off into crazy speculation. Just because he stated that the Wings may pursue Kapanen in a Glendening trade doesn't mean that Leafs management would be willing to meet the demand.
Glendening for Kapanen would be absolutely hilarious.
Not saying he is, Just that Detroit doesn't want to take on roster player, Need to bring up the kids ASAP. We'd want prospects that can start playing as early as next season.Leivo isn't exactly retiring next year.
Kapenen for Glendening would involve the Wings giving up picks and prospects on top so this trade doesn't add up .
Kapanen is looking legit
No way he's traded
True... But, Glendenning isn't close to Erat either(Erat was a 50 point per season player for like 7 years)
Not when he was traded.... it was a horrendous trade at the time too.

Of course they want Kapanen for Glendening... it’s such a reach
I agree with this. Either trade for someone who can actually move the needle significantly or don't make a trade at all. Glendening wouldn't be the difference between us beating Boston/TB and not. If we could upgrade on Bozak, then that would get me excited. But GTFO with Glendenning.
If the Leafs are mentioned, they will become the topic. Sheer numbers of the fan base make it so.Title is about GREEN and TAMPA. Why is the thread so off topic? There is already a Glendening thread.

Green to Tampa is such a no brainer that Kapanen for Glendening becomes the most interesting aspect of discussion.
lol. That's Forsberg for Erat levels of bad.
You might!
Unless Kapanen is traded for Glendening, there is no other reason to mention it other than click bait.The Wings have zero reason to trade Glendening and it has been reported by multiple people that if they do so it won't be cheaply. Asking high doesn't mean you are going to get your ask, and it is not unreasonable that the Wings would do so. Khan has shown a lot of credibility throughout the years with what is going on amongst Wings management. Last year before the TDL, he was reporting several weeks beforehand that it was unlikely that the Wings would get more than a 3rd round pick. Despite that, the majority around here believed he would get at least a 2nd+. Stating that he is reporting this 'just for hits' is just trying to discredit him.
Kapanen for glendening? Ill believe it when i see it.I couldnt find a Mike Green thread (even though I know theres one somewhere) but an article from Detroits best wings reporter came out today saying that Green has waived his NTC to go to Tampa Bay. "The lightning and wings have had many discussion and will continue to do so"... says that a deal will likely be based around Tampas first rounder.
Other tidbits include Babcock wants Glendening and Kapanen is a possibility. Howard and Mrazek trades were turned down by the Isles and Flyers. The preds have shown interest in Nyquist as well
Tampa Bay best fit for Red Wings' Mike Green
I don't think it would be bad for the Leafs.Glendening for Kapanen would be absolutely hilarious.
