Examples. Next year, if what I believe to be correct, you'll have 4 D in Phaneuf, Rielly, Gardiner, Ranger, Gleason. Then Granberg makes the jump, but I feel we'll see 7 D again this year for the long haul. So, whose number 4-7?

what did anyone see from Paul Ranger to want him back? I want nothing to do with he or Franson.. Let em both walk unless you can get something for Fransons rights.Ya cant teach skating too much at this stage of the game... Franson cant skate. Zero speed..

Ranger improved quite a bit from the start and especially after his extended sitting. If we can get him for what we paid him or even less I think it be good chance to keep him as a 7 and see where he goes from there. I agree with the Franson we need someone who's not as defensively liable as franson.

Jake Gardiner would only get a C because like pretty much all leaf prospects Toronto has no idea how to develop young talent....( prediction ....he gets traded to a team that can develop young talent and he becomes a really good offensive D-Man)

Ranger gets a C? I mean Franson was bad but at least he produced....Ranger was horrible most of the year.
They both should be D's.
But oh well....hopefully we don't see either in the line up next year.

exactly what did you expect from a bottom pairing 1 million dollar d-man?

he did fine for what he was signed and paid to do.

I expect a bottom pairing 1 million dollar NHL performance.
He had about 10 decent games....was garbage the rest.
