Franson + Colborne
- ThePresident


doubt they can fit the cap hit he will carry. Maybe just.

remove Couts $1.3, add $3.5 for Franson. Might just do it.They have $3M in room with Pronger's LTIR

Bozak could win a faceoff. Kind of important on the PP

True, but you can switch him off right after the draw.

I thought he had just extended for between 3-4, but it's 1.4 according to cap geek. Not an issue then.

2 more years at $1.7M

I'd do Franson or Gardiner + Colborne in a (frank)ing heartbeat.

Couts centers 3rd line, Bolland plays wing. McClement centers 4th line.

ya but lose your man advantage then though. (briefly)

PP was pretty good, and next year the top 2 lines will be the top 2 units with no fidgeting I would imagine.

I could live with this if they put Phaneuf and Franson on different units. 2 shooters and no QB.

I can't wait until Gardiner and Rielly fully develop. Should be two awesome PP QB's.

And then we eventually trade Bozak over the next couple of seasons as Couturier develops more, and we have Kadri and Couturier as our top 2 centerman. Would be ideal.

That would be much like Boston's Bergeron/Krejci combo, wouldn't it?

Where the hell did all of our cap space go, jesus, we had like the most or 2nd most available and now we're talking about being up right against it. I feel like we didn't even really make a move outside of the organization, besides Clarkson.....
- ThePresident


Their cap situation beyond this year is really good. The cap just came down.

My mom went into early labour when shopping in Buffalo and I was born there, but returned home to Toronto with her when she was released from the hospital 2 days later. That makes me an Amurikan?

Kadri had to be in the top 10, maybe top 5

Joe Bowen said he was #1 in penalties drawn during one of the last games of the season. You just gotta foul him or he'll make you look silly. He also dives occassionally...

Works well for both teams.

Jets are going to sign Grabo, put Kulie next to him, Gunner in Buff`s spot.


And we get Dustin (frank)ing Byfuglien

New rant today,

Direct Energy can't find the old water tank returned to them, gave them the RMA# and they still can't find it, now I told them to deal with the people that installed the new one and returned the old one.

I'm going back on vacation.
