Kevin McGran of the Toronto Star: (mailbag) If choosing between keeping Kasperi Kapanen or William Nylander, would keep Kapanen. Nylander is a better playmaker and the potential option to be a center is an intriguing thought though. Nylander’s contract could be an issue but there are also other salaries that they could move to create cap space.
If Nylander can become a center, you can add Nazem Kadri to Patrick Marleau and Nikita Zaitsev as players the Maple Leafs could move to create cap space.
