That's just my opinion, I'm pretty high on Anderson. That article written by a Leaf fan for Leaf fans also seems pretty high on Anderson. When a leaf fan base is gushing about one of your prospects, that's saying something.
But even if he is a second pairing defenceman, like a TJ Brodie, I still don't trade him for a Frolik type player. So unless you think Anderson's upside is Michael Stone, then I don't think you trade him for Kapanen.
Kapanen is being overvalued because he plays for the leafs, just like Gary Leeman and Matt Stajan before him.
