I mean, considering how we were told on HF that Kapanen/Jonhsson were legit top 6 guys playing down the roster for a solid, what, 3 years now; I don't think anyone's getting caught up on cap hits
Hell, do we need to go back to some of those old threads of how much Kapanen and Johnsson were better than multiple other players? There were MANY.
At the end of the day, those guys are better players than what's there now; and the Leafs were already top heavy. Being honest, and it's going to of course cause Leafs nation to quote me 100000 times and disagree; that bottom 6 doesn't resemble how any cup winner has ever looked. The top 6 does, even the top 3D if you kind of look at it squinty does.
