**Leaf News**

[Ranking every NHL team by prospect pipeline](http://abcnews.go.com/Sports/ranking-nhl-team-prospect-pipeline/story?id=41724093&ref=pensionplanpuppets.com)

This list from Corey Pronman was originally posted by ESPN behind a paywall but I guess ABC just decided to post it for free. Naturally, the Leafs top the list, and it isn't even close.

[TLN's Top 20 Prospects: Kapanen is number 5](http://theleafsnation.com/2016/8/29/tln-top-20-prospects-2016-5-kasperi-kapanen?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com)

That seems pretty darn high to me, but OK.

[TLN Monday Mailbag](http://theleafsnation.com/2016/8/29/tln-monday-mailbag-august-29-2016?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com)

Shawn Reis fields the questions this time.

Alec Brownscombe asks the Blue Jackets beat writer for some insight into Rychel's potential.

[Enroth in line to see more cage](http://editorinleaf.com/2016/08/28/toronto-maple-leafs-enroth-more-cage/?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com)

If Andersen plays 55-60 games, he sure could. Seems a reasonable prediction.

[Maple Leafs' Morgan Rielly ready to take on mentor role for younger teammates](https://www.thestar.com/sports/leafs/2016/08/29/maple-leafs-morgan-rielly-ready-to-take-on-mentor-role-for-younger-teammates.html?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com)

Hearing that Rielly is skating with Matthews and Brown is just... cool. From Kevin McGran at the Star.
