<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>TheAlien</b></div><div>Except Holl isn't worth more than a 5th and Gaudette is already a better player than Kapanen (Kapanen also doesn't even make the Canucks top 6) plus he's a center.

Talk about over valuing your players. Gaudette is not even close to better than Kapanen. Kap has him in every category, and that is while playing third line minutes behind 2 great RW. Give him top 6 minutes and playing partners and he is a 25+ 60+ player that kills penalties, and plays a three zone game. Gaudette had a career high goals because he had a higher than usual shooting percentage. He lacks physicality, his possession numbers tell a scary tale and as a center with a 41% face off percentage. He would be best to find his way to the wing.

Only way Canucks laugh is all the way to the bank because they just stole Kappy. Only thing that gives Leafs any value in this deal is cap space. But it’s not worth it.

Thread: Johnsson stays
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Stan_Bowman</b></div><div>I’d like for this to become one of those challenge things where you tag the creator in your own post. The “Keep Johnsson” challenge would certainly be something, considering that 95% of Leafs ACGMs have him going.</div></div>

It's mainly due to the flat cap. Personally, Kap is the guy I would trade for sure this off season. For whatever reason everyone thinks he's close to Nylander and Johnsson is just some 3rd liner who makes too much. It's the opposite. Johnsson is good, he's fast, smart, can pass and shoot and is responsible. While Kap is fast and likes to pretend he has an appetite for the rough stuff, he doesn't and spends 80% of his ice then skating in big circles doing nothing at all.
