What is purpose of including Kesler? Has no meaning at all regarding cap. Sorta takes away the credibility for the post.
Manson isn't that special now....so a Kapanen for Manson might help the Leafs in a position of need, but Manson is hardly a difference maker. Plus he does make 900,000 more.
If folks are so RHD obsessed here's a suggestion. Trade 3.2m Kapanen for futures. Let's say a 2nd and 4th rounder (if you can find a team with cap. Then overpay to sign UFA DeMelo on a 4m X 4 deal.
Leafs would be a better off with the picks, and have more term on equally average Dman.
