Sigh. Glad we gave his contract to ECHL Slugger Jamie Devane.

If the rumours are true it will be in Phoenix, I wonder if picking up some salary on the Leafs side will make it a go.

Is anyone with any credibility whatsoever actually reporting this rumour?

Because I sincerely, sincerely doubt it.

Sincerely,

Well I wouldn't mind getting some value in return for him, but I don't see him being traded. I think this season we're going to see even more of how much that trade was a steal with Franson and Lombardi both bouncing back.

I already had my meltdown out on this one, but he didn't get drafted the second time around either.

No, obviously the trade was already a steal, but seeing them perform really well this season will be the icing on the cake.

I can see Franson having a decent year...but Lombardi is utterly useless.

All he does is skate really fast in a straight line....and in one direction.

He was recovering from an injury, having the whole season before that off. Did you ever see him play before that? Once he gets his complete game back, he could be a pretty useful player, penalty kill wise, faceoff wise, 2 way wise, speed wise.
