Well Toronto says no right off the start. So there goes the "realistic" part of your title.

Why do they say no. Cap dump in Marleau and get back young controllable RH D

The worst isnt Toronto trade but St-Louis trade. This one is brutal

The St.Louis one actually isn't that bad. Change the pick going to St.Louis to a 3rd with Queeneville for Fabbri and it's probably a done deal

Fabbri much more potential than Quenneville

injury history of Fabbri hurts his value a lot

72 points in 155 NHL games, Quenneville 5 points in 33 games. Both 23 yo. Pick one...

1) Marleau isn't waiving his NMC if he intends to play next season. It was put in place for a reason, to not be sent to a bottom dweller team.
2) Kapanen isn't being moved. Leafs are extremely high on him and are reluctant to move him at all. If they have to move a guy with a big contract, Kapanen won't be the sweetener to do so.
3) Santini isn't that great. He doesn't have much more upside than a #4-5 guy. Those are very easily replaceable.

Not saying these trades are good, but kap is very likely to be traded, no way you can afford to keep him. Very likely. Use your head kiddo

in no particular order: Zaitsev, Marleau, Kadri, Hyman, Brown... there's a handful of players that are far more likely to be moved than Kapanen. He most likely signs a 2 year bridge deal under at no more than $3-$3.5M max which is very manageable under the cap. So yes, there's actually many ways to afford him.

Check your head "kiddo". LOL

you read your own comment? congrats.


Or you just think you know everything and everyone else doesn't "kiddo". A player that has offensive upside and has shown it in the AHL producing at a high level (Queeneville) and a 3rd round pick for a guy that has shown to have difficulty putting it together when he does play and has had a long list of injury concerns dating back to his junior hockey days (Fabbri).. the market isn't exactly sky rocketing for a guy like Fabbri. Change of scenery and playing opportunities do wonders for guys, Queeneville could definitely play the same role as Fabbri who's currently on the 4th line. 6 points in 32 games this season isn't hard to match. & if you wanna sit in your parents basement in front of your screen and say that "Fabbri is worth more cause of his potential" well then getting Queeneville and a 3rd would actually save St.Louis money when they have to re-sign them anyways. So St. Louis is getting a player that could very well get 6 points in 32 games, plus a 3rd that would be on a cheaper contract due to less NHL time and has less injury concern, for 1 player that has multiple injury concerns and hasn't produced when he was in the lineup and is currently only playing 4th line minutes..

So get your head outta your ass and actually learn something about hockey. Cause you clearly don't know as much as you think you do "kiddo". LMAO

You literally just explained why Marleau wont be traded. Nobody wants zaitsev at all, brow has no value. So kap is likely if you want anything in return. Kap is quite likely trade. In a few years after you have aged a bit rejoin the site, but for now go to bed little guy, its passed your bed time
