With the Cap crunch to hit the Leafs I see there are 6 players in my view that will have to go, I don't see them resigning Gardiner, Hainsey or Ennis and see them trading Kapanen, CBrown and Zaitsev.
Zaitsev will have to be a Cap dump on a Team with lots of Cap Space with probably a Prospect added for a mid to later Draft Pick.
I do have one Trade Proposal that I could see happening and this is it.

Carolina Trades
Pesce
6th Round Pick 2019 (Flames Pick)

Toronto Trades
Kapanen
CBrown
4th Round Pick 2019 (Blues Pick)

Hurricanes get some much needed RWing depth with Kapanen being the key and see him as a great fit with Aho, CBrown on there 3rd or 4th line depending if JWilliams resigns and with there great Prospect Pool on Defense they can afford to move Pesce.

For Toronto this is a Trade they will have to make for Cap reasons and adding at least a Top 4 Defenceman with a good Cap hit will be worth it.

Thoughts ?

Pinball it's either your overvaluing Kapanen or Brown because this is not even clost. Add Lilijegreen, Bracco, 2rd and its closer.

Its a good base but i agree with BoomBoom, Carolina will likely want young forwards back so Bracco, Johnsson, etc. are potential pieces that would need to be added.

Know your facts #thrasher69
Kapanen 22 years old
CBrown 25 years old
What do you consider young?
If anything the Leafs are robbed here it's like trading Kadri for DHamilton and BMcGinn if it where the Caine's needing Cap Space and the Leafs getting a 4th Round Pick for a 6th Round Pick.
Leafs will have to do this for Cap reasons not for fair Trade value.
