Haha he had 29 points in 45 game and is entering the prime of his career.

I could see Franson getting a 4 or 5 year deal in the 3.5 - 4m range

Just making terrible points today.

Actually, I'd take Kubina or Beauchemin back on the Leafs. I think either would be good with Phaneuf.

Nevermind, Kubina's done.

Scrivens for Linus the Dirtbag. Then get our Vet. Backup when the Flyers buyout Bryz. 2 Years at 3 per for Bryz. Thoughts??

No no no no no, don't want that headcase around the Leafs plus he sucks.

2nd pairing and first PP.
- SameOld


read the name again.

Talking Fraser... and no, 3rd pairing. Fraser and Franson had least 5on5 minutes of any Leafs dmen (O'Byrne doesn't count - not enough games)

3rd pairing.

Franson ranked 7th amongst Leafs d-men for ESTOI/G
Fraser was 8th.

Why You Heff to Be So Mad Lou? I guess youre right Bryz would freak out about Carlton the Bear in the Stands. That scares Him, but Scrivens for Linus is a good idea if Nonis is getting a vet. backup, No?

are the leafs in that good of a cap situation?

12 players signed, 19m in space?

2 buyouts... Just say Komi and Liles

clears another 7... so 10 players signed 26 mil in space'ish

Since you keep bringing it up... Franson's numbers this year were substantially better than PK's numbers LAST year.

PK's numbers this year aren't really relevant to his contract negotiations last January.

Hahaha so according to your logic, because one team made a great signing and got a heck of a player at a steal of a deal, every team is going to be able to do the same with their RFA's?

Are you high right now?

Did you not just see what Josi got?

I heff to be mad when talking about that headcase, haha. I don't know too much about Omark other than he can take a shootout.

It's pretty obvious they will only buyout Komisarek this year.

They'll try to trade Liles and give grabo another shot. If grabo poops the bed again he gets bought out next year.

Definitely seems like the most logical thing to do IMO.

Dude, c'mon.

I know PK is no Scott Stevens, but you have to admit he's much better than Franson in all-round situations.

Simply put: Franson can't be trusted with big minutes. At least not yet.

So I'm being illogical by pointing to one deal, but you are Mr. Spock for pointing to a deal that Nashville just handed out, and thinking 29 other GMs will be forced to fall in line?

Franson was our best d-man in the playoffs if you ask me, and the more minutes he got, the better he got.

Once again, logically speaking, do you see a lot of teams lining up to trade for a guy with concussion problems, who was a healthy scratch 3 out of 7 playoff games, scored no points, and has three years left at a cap hit of just under $4 million?

Love a lot of the guys the leafs have together right now. Hope you can keep a lot of those strong role players - Bozak, Kulemin, Franson, Gunnarsson intact.

Asking price for Scrivens?

- Morris



Scrivens + Liles + 21st pick to the oil
7th + 4th rounds picks to the leafs.

Talk to my union rep.

I don't need to answer your questions.

I won't pee in that cup.
