I like when he plays Gardiner a lot. It'll get him quicker to (frank)up Ville and a seat in the press box.

why do you want gardiner to fail?
- doinktheclown


I don't. I just think he's terrible defensively and makes dumb in game decisions.

I don't know who posted it, nor where i can even find it

But Gardiner has one of the lowest GA/TOI and Franson has the highest.

Franson is a plus player cuz he owned on the PP, which i will fully acknowledge

- UsernameUnknown

does plus minus count on the power play or the penalty kill

that's exactly the point, he isn't suspend yet.

which is exactly why the suspension should have begun immediately including the per-season games.

Does anybody know what the deal is with Clarkson's cap hit during his suspension? Does it buy the leafs more time to find a trade?

unfortunately its going to be worse next year. More contract signing drama with all the free agents and RFAs.

Nope... If you give up a goal while on the pp you get a minus though.

Everytime you refreash it counts as a hit. Doesn't Ek benefit from the number of hits he receives?

More Cap space though, although we are probably going to lose an asset for nothing along the way.

I agree, he is not very good defensively without the puck and needs to develop better judgement about the risks he takes.

The guy has the natural talent to control the play of the game that very few players do.

Most guys are given the leash to take the chances he takes. I think the Leafs recognize his potential if he can put all together.

He’s easily worth a couple more years of growing pains to see if he can reach his full potential.

Nope, done by ip hits; one ip equals one hit.
Oh and it's refresh.

So without our best puck possession players (MacA, Grabo and Frattin), I think we'll be in bottom 5 of the league...
