I'd settle for smart line changes and moving with the same intensity in the defensive zone as he does in the offensive zone.

Potatoe / Banana.

I would rather him play good D as well and score a few less points, but that just me. There are 2 sides to the ice surface..

If he could play the way he did last night every game I would be one happy man.. skated hard both ways, chipped in a couple points, nearly 80% on the draw.

That game against Minny, I thought he was turning a corner.....I think Cherry needs to kiss him again.

couldnt hurt right?

for poops and giggles I looked at all players drafted #7 (forwards) from 1996-2009 Kadri year

The 2 best seasons by players take #7 in points are

Lupul 67 (in 66 games)
Voracek 46 (in 48 games)

50 points for him is pretty good if he averages that

Agreed. That is what RC was trying to tell him.

Phaneuf: Captain Caveman
Gunnarsson: Hipster
Gardiner: The Forward Wannabe
Rielly: The Chosen One
Gleason: The New Guy
Ranger: Ranger Danger
Fraser: The New Glacier
Franson: The Hippo

He could be Brent Burns of the East!

The only Ranger to be a bigger flop than the Lone Ranger.

hmmmmm, Cody Franson to RW!

if only he was more physical it would be possible. That, plus we can't push clarkson any further down the depth chart.

Agreed. That is what RC was trying to tell him.
- bixll

hopefully it sticks.

as a side note.. i think the death of his grad dad late last year effected him more than anyone would of guessed... his death seemed to coincide with the start of his slump.

kadri was actually pretty close to his grandparents from what I hear.

Why cant someone get Franson a helmet that fits his big bean!? It always looks like its half way off his head. I know it aint his speed causing that effect

I understand that, but that does not mean you forget about the things that you havr to do to be a professional hockey player. One of those big things, is to get in excellen physical shape. That would be a start, and put the (frank)ing bong down until next spring.

Bozak The driver

Perhaps playing the Ranger with the Hippo, would be a good idea.

I mean who else would have as much wild life knowledge and techniques to tame and motivate a hippo?

leafs need to get 33 points in the Final 38 games to match the 11-12 Ron Wilson Bus over a cliff season

that might be tough to do if nothing changes

If they don't go over 500 the rest of the way, it will be an early spring tee off.

When you have 4 regulation wins in 30 games the bus has all ready driven off the cliff, landed, exploded, incinerated everything on board, funerals done, had the memorial, wives have remarried, kids are calling new dudes dad.

If they fall out of playoff contention by the trade deadline, I hope to see all the guys in the last years of their contracts moved.
