Just Kessel

- Woderwick

No reason to think that a couple guy's wouldn't be ready..Imo Percy and Rielly could have made this team now..
U may get away with sending Rielly back this year but unless he takes a step back he has a real shot next season..
- Fruitcakenipple

I'd say Rielly easily makes the team next year. He'd be here now if it wasn't for the cap situation

With you on that.

Mike Augello: Leafs Sign Franson To One Year Deal
- mikeinbuffalo

Got to give it to Nonis on getting Kadri and Franson done when no one thought he had the cap space, and adding Raymond. Pretty impressive, but he has his work cut out for him next year!

Hope kids are not running at him in Jr. He has to stay healthy.

If he manages to trade Liles somehow too. No one can talk $&#% about Nonis for a period of no less than 6 months.

this season isn't completely set yet either...almost...but yes this is just a taste of what's in store for next year

Some here thought he might get traded to a contending team closer to the GTA - think that happens?

He plays in the Western league, does he not.

Yup very few thought he'd be able to do it.i alway though he had enough to do it, but to also add Raymond to it too is impressive.

That's my thoughts as well. If he can move out Colburne and JML, he will be a god.

Back in July most expected it would take 4+ million to sign Franson..after Kadri signed it was 3 million. the 2 mil he signed for is a steal, in a full season this guy might have hit 55 points!

He did a great job, hands down. I can't wait

So if Kessel had of gotten some regular season games in his suspension the Leafs would of been really (frank)ed or ?
- blizzzard

Yep.

He plays in the Western league, does he not.
- bixll

Yes...they theorized the Leafs could actually request a trade to the East to help him develop under their guidance more efficiently. Seems a little out there, but who knows.

That's my thoughts as well. If he can move out Colburne and JML, he will be a god.
- bixll

anyone who can pull off Luongo for Bertuzzi has to be respected....and Burke credited Nonis for engineering most of the recent Leaf trades

For the most part short contracts.. Cleaned up, I love it.

I would bet against them getting him, to say, London..

He will be a great GM for the Leafs, my guess.

Good deal, but next summer is going to be fun for the Leafs money man.

Hard to believe they could have that much...or any influence over a different league with private team ownership.

Good deal, but next summer is going to be fun for the Leafs money man.
- Marshalle

I agree, unless they can add some graduates next year - which I'm sure they will.
