A likely top 10 pick and our best prospect is not 'for cheap'

I don't make this trade, it is how you **** up a rebuild.

heck
:biglaugh: You don't even offer your 2017 1st round pick. Good stuff...

For the millionth time, easy pass for the Canucks. No Nylander/Marner, no Tanev to Toronto.

When Jim Benning gets fired and the Canucks start a rebuild:

:leafs
Chris Tanev

:nucks
Kasperi Kapanen
Brendan Leipsic
2018 1st Round Pick (Top 3 Protected)

HUGE, I mean HUGE overpayment. I would not give the 1st round pick alone for Tanev! No ****ing way.

Easy pass... what do you expect for Tanev. Do you honestly think he will net more than a top 10 pick + blue chip prospect for 3 years of Tanev?

Don't want him he's been too injured plus I think Canuck fans want to much, I think Canuck fans saw what Larsson got and now they think every #3 d man is worth the moon but Tanev isn't

Well considering the fact Tanev is better NOW then Larsson (and could very well end up being the best of the 2), and that Larsson got Taylor Hall (top5 LW in the NHL), PRETTY sure an offer of

Kapanen (2nd liner MAXIMUM, doesn't have the tool to become a 1st liner)
Leipisc (probably another career AHLer)
2018 1st round pick (top 3 protected) = ANOTHER mistery bean

WHY IN HELL would the Canucks do this? For a top Pairing 2way D-man in his prime and signed LT? If Larsson got Taylor Hall back, Tanev could very well end up bringing back a guy like Duchene

Tanev > Larsson and please don't start this again.

Tanev is a pipedream. There is no deal that works for both teams. I would love Tanev in Toronto, i would not trade Nylander/Marner for him.

I didn't make this thread, in order to start it again I would have to start it the first time

But I didn't because I don't want him, at least not for what Vancouver fans think he's worth

Nah there totally would be a deal that works for both teams, just not the fans.

IF Nucks ownership cans Benning and goes rebuild making a Tanev for futures deal possible

IF the Leafs pick is in the value sweetspot to be the centrepiece

IF the Leafs don't absolutely love someone at that pick and the Nucks do

I would do our 1st right now...Tanev/Rielly would be very good.

Random capitalization doesn't make you less hilariously wrong.



If Kapanen doesn't have the tools to be a 1st line player in the NHL no drafted prospect does. His tools (skating, shot, puckhandling, are all ++, the big question mark has always been his ability to make use of them, and he appears to be putting it together. I wouldn't trade him. (Strike 1)

While Leipsic being "probably a career AHLer" isn't technically wrong because of betting odd's being against any non elite prospect turning out, calling possibly the best offensive player in the AHL at 22 that pretty much blanket devalues all AHL prospects. (Call that one a foul tip. Strike 2)

Tanev is the definition of a defensive dman, not 2 way. (Strike 3). You're out

Same.

Lotto Win protected 1st +Prospect not Kap (I'd like to rule out Grundstrom and neilsen too)+later of two seconds.



The whole Marner/ Nylander thing is pie in the sky dreaming IMO. Sure it could happen but overwhelmingly not likely. Non Franchise/elite 1st liners don't bring back elite prospects/ young players, they bring back same aged/value assets or packages.

And for everyone trumpetting Chia getting bent as some sort of precedent look at Hamilton.

Lol I agree that Tanev/Rielly would be a damn good pairing.

But. Leafs fans. Honestly. Tanev, a early prime, #2/3 guy, on a GREAT contract, and you guys are trying to get him with peanuts. I know you guys wanna get him, but just because you're on the east coast doesn't mean you get him for free.

Kapanen doesn't have tools?

He has some of the most elite tools of any NHL prospect, it's the toolbox that has been questioned.

I'm on the west coast and I still don't want him.

Would you trade Horvat for Tanev?

Leafs are tanking this year, and we will get our #1RD 2nd overall in the draft.
