I'd like to part with Grabo on good terms, but he can go (frank) himself.

Carlyle was the only reason we made it as far as we did. The best streak in Grabovski's season was seven games where he posted 2 points and a -10.

But he got up a lot after getting plastered. Great.

Grabo does "well" in a run and gun situation - Wilson style. If he can't play well in a better style that wins more, then see you later.

He was usurped by Kadri, if he's mad at anyone it should be himself.

I doubt he reallocates it to Bozak. Now as Grabovski is bought out, Tyler cannot use the "but, but, he makes 5.5" excuse anymore. This is Toronto's way of saying you aren't gonna strike it rich being a 3rd line scrub.
- Tee-Dot

I agree, Grabo's contract was being used as a measuring stick.

Bozak: I want at least what he gets.

Nonis: That's nice. That contract was another G.M.'s mistake, and it's now something I have to take care of and I will look like the bad guy for it.

This. You learn to play the system that wins or you're gone.

Boston, Detroit, New Jersey... These teams all put the system ahead of the individuals. I hope Grabovski enjoys the beach in Florida.

That was the problem. Carlyle used him as a 3rd line center this year, in a defensive role he wasn't capable of fulfilling. Although he really didn't do thatterrible.
Carlyle misused him and he had a bad season.

Misused? You really think he wouldn't have played there if KAdri wasn't simply way better? Cause he wasn't very good defence wise.

It's not Carlyle's fault...Grabo simply got outplayed for the 2nd line role by Kadri...we didn't have a true 3C shutdown guy...

He started on the second line, kadri outplayed him. with Carlyle you earn your playing time anyone who doesn't agree should be gone.

I loved his spark, I think everyone did, but what was his role on this team going forward?
plus that contract did not help!

No, you're right. For sure. He was used in a spot he shouldn't have, simply because we didn't have anyone else to do it.
You keep him in an offensive role and he'd be fine.
Second line C in Detroit? He'd be fine.

Edit: and yes, he was outplayed by Kadri for 2C
