Get Nashville to throw in Fabbro too, then it’s a deal.

You think Preds are getting fleeced? Kadri at that team friendly deal is a valuable asset. We aint giving Nylander for Ellis

Just a bit. Tolvanen is a bit of a stretch because, just like Kadri does have extra value because of his contract, as an RFA Tolvanen also has more value.

Oh. I don't know much about Tolvanen because he's in a low market team so I just tossed him in

Tolvanen is the preds top prospect. He's not a toss in.

What's a "low market team"? I've never heard that term before.

Low market just means low media coverage. I barely ever here about Nashville at all unless Leafs are involved

You won't hear about any other team, if you only follow Toronto media (I live in Toronto too, and get frustrated by how little they know/care about the other 30 teams). Regardless, I'd pass on this for the Preds. Another middle six centre isn't a need, I'd be wary of taking on Kapanen as an unsigned RFA after one nice season, and I don't think Bracco has a ton of NHL upside. I'd much rather have Ellis and Tolvanen.

Overpay just to obtain this magical 6.25m RHD. this time Ellis. Keep Zaitsev and if you need cap trade Kapanen and Kadri for non cap assets. Don't know shyIsles do that deal. Zaitsev may be better but he 2.9m more expensive. You said you won't trade Nylander for Ellis but trading Kadri, Kapanen, and Bracco makes less sense for me. Nylander and Ellis might be an even deal but it doesn't help the Leafs cap,
