I was a big fan of Komarov's work on the right side of the puck. However, you weren't about to see tic-tac-toe passing plays with him. Connor Brown had 14 assists. 10 of them were first assists. This is the same amount as Marleau. Kapanen had a very decent goals/60, but honestly, can he tic-tac-toe himself? The answer so far is a resounding no. He has some of the worst passing stats the Leafs have seen in their franchise history. Goons have done more. He'll be a defensive player that the line tries to break-out for breakaways. I don't see him being part of any offensive equation working with others. He has potential, but he has plenty of work to do.
You expect great passing stats From Kapanen when the receivers are 0 goals in 17 games Plekanec, and unable to pot in a gimme to save his life Komarov. Give your head a shake. He had 46 goals and 64 assists with the Marlies. How did that happen? His linemates weren't broken down geezers.
