Dude: really?

He's the 20th highest paid centre in the league.

How can you possibly justify that for a 2nd line centre?

30th in pts for Centers last year. 52nd in min/game.

Guys like Krejci are only 250K less and Plecks only 500K.

He's a bit overpaid, but you know what? So's half the league at any given time. It's because there's no Kelley Bluebook value on players; it's all over the place, circumstantial, subjective, and completely dictated by the market on any given year.

Agreed. When you look at his comaprables, it's not that bad.

Actually it was 51 points and to be a 2 way center you need to have a good +/- his plus minus in his career year was 0. And this season it is -1.

I was averaging his goals and points over last 4 years. He's never scored exactly 25G... I know that might seem weird to a Nucks fan... looking at more than the previous year before awarding a big contract cough Garrison cough

And as for +/- - you forget what team he plays for???? He's the ONLY forward on the Leafs with a positive +/- the last 3 seasons. 2 years ago he was +14, when the team was a big minus

Utterly stupid.

Grabo lines up against the other teams #1 offensive forwards ever game.

What a stupid comment.

If he played with Jack Johnson they'd lead the league with a minus 75.

You say that as a fan of a team who has had goalies not named Vesa Toskala and Jonas Gustavsson.

And this is what happens when he does.



Care to identify #84 in the corner doing nothing except watching the puck while Jordan Staal, a skyscraper of a player, is standing in front of the net completely and totally alone?

I said he's inconsistent. He has one big game then disappears for three. Reading what is actually written would go a long way for you.

Let's be honest, Uggie.

Why you said was that you wanted to reverse the Schenn for JVR trade. Still stand by that?
