Instant and hard pass.The Canucks need d prospects.
I would do Lilidgren and a 2nd.
For Tanev
Gives Toronto some stability. They lost to Boston because of bad d.
Gives the Canucks another d prospect which they desperately need.
I think he is thinking about Tom Lilidgren, not Tim LiljegrenInstant and hard pass.
Possibly, but i only got as far as Lil... and screamed NO!!!!I think he is thinking about Tom Lilidgren, not Tim Liljegren

Many Leafs fans (myself included) have offered that exact deal...1st+2nd+2nd/prospectI've said it before on these forums, Toronto and Canucks fans pretending that they could ever agree on a is laughable.
We're talking about a premier shut down d men in the league. Still younger and under control. And, Toronto's d (Mostly Gardiner) got undressed regularly.
Look at the Hamonic trade, good d are not cheap. I think my trade offer was fair. Burrows returned a 2nd rounder (Dahlen) on his own with an expiring contract.
I will only comment on the bold...yes, he is.No way.....not worth giving up a 1st and 2nd and a player like Kapanen for a player who is always hurt. Plus, is Tanev that much better a defensive D? I'd rather sign a UFA like Carlson or De Haan. The Leafs aren't desperate (nor should they be) enough to give up that much. Patience Leafs fans....patience!

I don't think I'd be willing to get rid of Kapanen in this trade, and I don't think Dubas would either. I know fans from other teams think that we leaf fans overvalue Kapanen but realistically, I think he is going to be given his first real chance to shine next season. Kappy has never seen regular ice time on the top 2 lines, stuck playing with guys like Moore and Martin, but next season I feel like he will be given a chance in the top six and be given opportunities to thrive playing with guys like Matthews, Marner, Nylander, Kadri, etc.To TOR

Young cost controlled assets are extremely important to a team like Toronto who are about to pay 3 players a lot of money long term. So ya I agree, can't see Toronto moving those 3 (especially the first 2) unless they is a big overpayment.Other than Dermott, Liljegren and Kapanen I don't have interest in any other prospects. I think Maple Leaf fan value those guys too much to trade them.
I am with you on this. If he is so great why isn't every other team asking....what will it cost to get kapanen? There isn't one person asking that so that should give away what his value is.When are we going to stop pretending that Kapanen has the value that Leafs fans think he does?

Actually he’s had seasons of 64/69/70 games. He misses a lot. You don’t have to exaggerateTanev has never played more than 60 games and you want us to give up a first and Kap, no thanks!!!!!!!
Hey, i like you logic....i will now value Tanev in the same way. In the very recent past, these threads have popped up:I am with you on this. If he is so great why isn't every other team asking....what will it cost to get kapanen? There isn't one person asking that so that should give away what his value is.
