This warms the cockles of my heart. I had numerous trades this summer proposing to trade Bear for Kapanen and Leafs fans were chirping me really hard saying how much better Kapanen is than Bear. Now the shoe is on the other foot.
But yeah, a fast, puck-moving, tough 1RHD or 2RHD like Bear who is RFA is worth way more than a winger any day of the week.
I would love for the Oilers to get Kapanen because the Oilers need 1 more top 6 winger on a reasonable contract like his. But the ask is waaayyy too high.
