1. Kapanen plays on the pk and the powerplay. One of the fastest skaters on our team. We don't want Larsson cause he is a bottom pairing man.
Again if its not Nurse than bye bye no kappy for you
"Kapanen plays on the pk and the powerplay"
Over the past 2 seasons combined, Kapanen has average just 1:01 in 5v4 time per game, 12th among Leafs forwards. His P/60, 2.40, ranks him 13th among Leafs forwards. Result: he's not good on the powerplay. He wouldn't make anyone's 1st unit and also wouldn't make most teams' 2nd unit. If you look at the Oilers 5v4 PP over the past 2 seasons, Kapanen's scoring rate would slot behind Sam Gagner (2.66 P/60) and just ahead of Milan Lucic (2.25 P/60). That's not complimentary.
Again looking at the past 2 seasons combined, Kapanen has played an average of 1:37 per game at 4v5 - good for 6th most among Leafs forwards. Again, not a key guy, he's used as a spare. His 50.57 SA/60 is average among Leafs forwards who have played more than 50 minutes, but his 7.30 GA/60 is below average. The Oilers had the 2nd best PK in the league this year, so he wouldn't make their PK as a regular either.
"One of the fastest skaters on our team."
There are lots of fast skaters that don't amount to anything, speed alone doesn't guarantee anything.
"Larsson cause he is a bottom pairing man"
Cool story. Larsson has never played below 2nd pairing in his career. And he's been playing well since coming back from injury, too.

You aren't getting anything like Nurse in return for this player, and you're delusional if you think Holland would consider it for a second.
