No, in this case I see Reimer winning back the #1A Job.

See above. Less than $3 mil for the entire line.

I don't understand the question.

I can't imagine how much crap he'd get for his defense in Toronto. He'd become the NHL's worst D-Man in everyone's eyes.

While I agree that the Leafs' signings are quite the dog's breakfast, I think even Bloatsie can agree that last year's 4th line was so effing atrocious, the Leafs have improved in that department.

The D is still sub-par, I'm afraid.

- Atomic Wedgie

I know he is old and battered, but Robidas was a good risk....a big improvement back there if he can stay healthy.
Haven't seen enough of Polak to make a fair assessment, but I will probably enjoy his brand of hockey more than that of gunnarsson
I think they have at least a couple Marlies who could make the cut and be an improvement over last years ensemble.
Rielly and Gardiner should both be a better, more experienced duo.
Not to mention a huge improvement in overall team defense should help the d.



....I guess what I'm saying is that it can't possibly be worse.

Ok but that line cost the leafs less than $3 mil. What was leaf management thinking?
- bloatedmosquito

I'm not privy to that info. Looks like Shanahan has addressed it though.

I have no idea what Polack or Robidas will bring.

Rielly is going into his sophomore season - do not assume he will be better.

You will have forgotten that Gunnarson was ever a Leaf by December. He did nothing well.

Gunnarson was good 3 years ago. He really does have a hip worse than an 80 year-old woman.
