you just like to make poop up to stir the pot.

Seriously. Was Matt Stajan a 50 point player in Toronto? Yes. You don't win with Matt Stajan in your lineup.

There's something keeping teams away from him though... His illness maybe?

I just kept hearing that he was in no rush to sign anywhere yet?

That has zero to do with what was said. Absolutely nothing.

Find another place to start a straw man argument.

I kind of respect that clarkson chose 71 instead of 17 by flipping the numbers, but does anyone else think that 71 looked weird on the jersey He probably should of took 17 but didnt out of respect

Leafs make the playoffs for the first time in eons with him getting the most icetime of any forward. I say yes.

He will go to Detroit or Calgary.

And get 50-60 pts

yeah captain misery picks his spots to argue.

At the deadline when he signed his deal Grabovski had 20 goals in 59 games.
Was playing some of the best hockey as a leaf.

Stajan has never scored 20 goals in a season

I'd be pissed if he took 17.

I also never want to see 93 worn again either.

Meh...it's a number. Take 17 - if he respects Wendel then don't embarrass yourself wearing it.

Grabo's getting marriage lesson #1. He's learning, very quickly, that the ladies don't like when they don't have your full attention. Grabo's new contract can (will) wait until he gets back from his honeymoon.

How is Grabovski better? Point's? If that was the mark why was Bozak on the ice more. And a lot more.

- honesthockey


this is your logic

Grabovski - Not able to fetch a 1st round pick as a rental
Bozak - the reason the leafs finally made the playoffs

Bozak was the #1 center the 2 or 3 previous season also.

i would give Carlyle/Wilson as the biggest reasons why the leafs did and did not make the playoffs. You can go with Bozak
