Bumps Leafs down to a better pick

If the Islanders acquire a #1 Dman somehow, they'll look pretty good.

We made it through this year without massively overpaying. Good job. Too bad we (frank)ed up with Clarkson tho.

he barely played in Columbus because they had a winning chemistry that worked, and it got them in the playoffs. They didn't need him. LA is LA , and they obviously didn't see a fit.

When Frattin was on the Leafs he shined, because he got the chance he deserved. You will NEVER know what you have in a player without opportunity, especially with Frattin, when he had potential before he got traded. Again, Frattin had that chemistry with Kadri & Lupul and that helped not only Matt to succeed, but it helped the Leafs as well.

Yes, as you said frattin affects a wining chemistry.
I guess lucky for us, the leafs don't have a wining chemistry

Overpaying mediocre players is not "what it takes."

Take it from this Leafs fan...

Grabovski is a pretty good player.

Grabo has to be one of the richest players in the league...

How much is he getting from the leafs on top of his money from the Island?

Grabovski is a pretty good player.
- Pecafan Fan

He was a third-line centre on Washington last year.

$5 million?

Yeah, yeah, I know - free agency madness.

I'm not convinced, don't get me wrong I would love nothing more than the leafs to make the post season, just don't see it happening. And yes I don't think we will get a top 5 pick either, I think just outside like 6 or 7. Just my opinion, then again I thought the Hawks would repeat when I pick a team before the season even started last season.

Will Michael Dal Colle play with the Islanders next year or be returned to junior?

They'll likely be looking to move some forwards .... Nielsen, Baily or Grabner seem like the obvious choices.

Nothing all that interesting.
