Please don't tell me that all we as Leaf fans have to look forward to is Boyd Gordon , especially after the way the season ended

It's going to be a long summer

look on the bright side, Connolly's name will no longer be part of the picture.

and you'll have the speculation about who the Leafs might sign out of the "huge" list of buyout FAs....

on that note... when does Gillis announce he's buying out Luongo's "great" contract?

I was thinking the same thing. THIS IS OUR BIG OFF SEASON MOVE??

If we sign Gordan and let Bozak walk I predict we will miss the playoffs... why is everyone so low on Bozak? SIGN BOZAK!!!!

- Hockey_Reverend

This has nothing to do with Bozak...

it's simply to get a 4th line centre who is dynamite on the draw and is one of the best PKer's in the game so that Ballsack isn't needed to do the old "Take the draw and scamper to the bench for Kulemin" every penalty kill start.

Lupus - Kadri - Kessel

JVR - Grabo/Bozak - Kulemin/UFA (Guess Clarkson why not?)

Frattin - Grabo/Bozak - Kulemin/UFA (Guess Dupuis why not?)

McClement - Gordon - McClaren/Komarov

(frank) off

sorry.. but saying that flipping bozak for gordon takes this team from playoff contender to lottery pickville its hilariously ridiculous



btw.. bozak is a mediocre 3rd line centre at best. man.. the hard ons some people have for him..its stupid.

Dupuis would be a pretty expensive 3rd line winger...

I know, I just glanced quickly at the list. He ain't going anywhere anyways.


Obviously the third line will go to Alfredsson who always wanted to play for his hometown Leafs.

Again, Bozak is so underrated... I just don't think it is wise to let him walk when Grabo is questionable and you cannot expect Kadri to repeat his performace of last year... and Colborne? Really people, how many games did he play last year?? ugh

Know who would be a good signing if he'd agree to a one or two year deal at like 3.5 mil?

Vinny Prospal.

bozak is not worth anything north of 3

if he wants more than that he'll be wearing a different uniform next year.. nonis is no fool.

somtimes you gotta know when to walk away from a guy.. we do not want another muskoka five situation

That's why 1-2 years. Ray Whitney/Jagr/Selanne/Alfie etc are all old as hell too, doesn't mean they aren't productive and can contribute in the short term.

Leafs should not have to over pay anymore. He should get 1.8 milly. Compare him to others around the league and he get under 2.

25 is pretty young for a goalie. Next 5 years should be his prime years. He's just getting there. And that game 7 was a big learning point for him (I would hope)
- Big_Lightnin

25 is pretty much into his prime years.
Good goalies begin their rise ealier.
