You first need a team with a first rounder who needs Kapanen that badly since 1st rounders are hoarded like gold, and this is a very solid draft year, it seems. Kapanen may be trending up (his stats this year are no better than last year) but he's still at only 1.5 good seasons and is on the third line. He also didn't do much in the POs. Then, having found a partner for the first, they've got to find someone who has a D and wants a first - i.e. a rebuilding team. Those are a lot of dominoes to line up.
