Confirmed with Link: Leafs sign defenceman Jani Hakanpää (1 year, $1.47M) (official)

He was alright for the first game. Dude is a fighter, let him adjust to Berube’s system.

Elite things come to those who wait...

I thought he had an ok game but I only watched the first half.

Not really a fan of Timmins.

LOL.

 

[CabanaBoy5]

He skated quite well for a guy 6'7" on a wonky knee. Let's give him time to adapt and then judge but I think he can help us as much if not more than Benoit or Timmins.

 

[Puckstuff]

He has the potential to be the missing piece of the puzzle the keystone is what they say

I think we still need one more piece.

Rielly - Tanev
OEL - ????
McCabe-Hakanpaa

Timmins and Benoit are ok as a 6/7 D but I wouldn't complain about an upgrade in the top 6.

 

[Cap'n Flavour]

He looks like crap so far, slow, immobile and bad with the puck. Only played 12:34 last night and Rielly also struggled with him 5v5. Benoit wasn't doing great but Hakanpaa is clearly not 100%, why are they rushing him in?

Are they rushing or he just bad
