We are trying to make it enjoyable to post here, with that the fighting stops. Posters are telling us that is what they want, we are listening.

Hmmm.. I woulda thought Komarov would almost certainly be playing with his fellow Finn.. I like the idea of being less goonish and roll all 4 lines.. But who's providing toughness? Bodie?

There seems to be some flexibility there, but only if Lupul and Clarkson step it up. Lupul scares me a bit for some reason - I don't feel as confident looking at him on that 2nd line as I used to...and we don't have to mention Clarkson.

play together

Holland or Kontiola are the 13th guy that is the most intriguing battle for me. Winner gets 3C between Clarkov and Clarkson

Bodie, Polak, Clarkson

Heres my wishlist prediction

put Santorelli with Kadri/Lupul, have holland center frattin/clarkson, keep kontiola/komarov together. Those would be my changes.

I think the roster charts were the beginning of the negative slide yesterday.

The debate that seemed to "IGNITE" the negativity was whether anyone was allowed to consider Frattin as a possible 2nd liner.

Can you imagine the horror

I never thought I would say this, but would signing Ranger for a mil be a plausible solution for the 7th man?

Dion-Robby, Gards-Granberg, Rielly-Polak, Ranger?

I have to go wash my hands after typing that

I thought you wanted McDavid?
- The Law

Of course, but if we get into June, I would love too.

Leafs absolutely HAVE TO play Kadri with Holland and Lupul.

the "KHL" line.

Seriously. Why the hell haven't they resigned Bodie yet?

This guy was one of the nicer surprises last season. He's got size, he competes and can actually play... He's everything that a 4th line banger should be.

Nonis and Shanny need to wake the (frank) up on this one. He could probably be signed for a couple years with an AAV <$900k.

I know I'm in the minority, but I like Ranger for that role.

been saying it for awhile myself

he'd be the perfect 7th.. a guy on the cheap who you can sit 90% of the games.

steps in if someone is hurt while you wait for a call up to join the team

I believe this is exactly what happens - IF they can move Franson.

Franson is likely going for an established 4million dollar d man.
