they seem like pretty similar players.

Lots of jam. This team had too much peanut butter last year.

I've heard a different version of that joke

Heatly can't skate anymore...like at all.
- Big_Lightnin

We've got that chick to work on his skating and Roberts to get him fit again.

Not a bad risk short term since we got nothing going. Unless we're playing half an AHL team next year.

As for Leaf fans go, he'd come, someone would see an old video of him doing something and start praising him as a savior.

I'd do it just for the comedy side of it.
- CanadianBodmon

The way I see it he cant be worse than David Clarkson last year so just go for it. They did the exact same thing with Raymond and it was beautiful. It's like Clarkson and Raymond negated each other on the roster.

Since trade he's changed to useless..Dumb move..pointless garbage..
- Fruitcakenipple

Yup.
But the leaf faithful love him.

Also hearing #Redwings #Leafs strong interest on Robidas



- jbold

Niskanen will go to the Wings. We'll get Robidas.... Hopefully...

he could help on the pp considering Clarkson didnt do much
- GardinerExpress

Clarkson did t do much caus Raymond was on he PP, not Clarkson.

How is it a dumb move? D'Amigo wasn't making Toronto a contender anytime soon. Frattin is the better player with higher potential. It's a small deal, but I like Frattin more than D'Amigo.

Been scouting him a lot eh? Maybe coming back to TO brings him around.

...he would be a pretty good backup for Bernier.

A real difference maker.

Leafs trade Joffrey Lupul and Cody Franson to San Jose for Joe Pavelski

Yup.
But the leaf faithful love him.
- Fakepartofme

He's a 3rd/4th liner....nobody is going crazy here. I just like Frattin more, so I don't mind the deal. It's not going to put either team over the "hump" or anything, obviously.

Hey media reporting on a Toronto trade, you don't really need to tack on the "and a draft pick" at the end of the Leafs' side, it's assumed.

bumhole

Looks like the only guy coming is Boyle... Not sure he's the answer as he isn't exactly the best guy in his own end, but alas, it's the Leafs... Why no one want to come here? Is it Dion?...

Sounds like Vanek to the Leafs, 3 years.
