(frank) we haven't had some good D in a long time
Say what you want about dion, but he's by far the best we have had in a long time

- TonkaPhaneuf

He is...scary thought, but he really is.

He doesn't stink and he was put on the wrong side in NSH

But also OH OMG HE GOT LESS ICE TIME CUZ HE SUCKS!!! And he's definitely strong on the PP which of course NSH would prefer to give minutes to Josi/Weber.

No, he's just not as good as Josi and Weber. Neither is anyone on the Leafs roster.

When you say he was put on the wrong side in NSH, do you mean the defensive zone?

sorry garnie i cannot see Dave Bolland being the difference between making the playoffs and drafting in the top 10.
- DoubleDown

Dave Bolland was the greatest Leaf since Kris Versteeg.

right guys...

Phaneuf is so good guys he's a true #1 defenseman just like you were all saying the past 3 years!! What a great contract he's on now and now that Babcock is here he is going to win the Norris!!

Like, if you actually watched the games you would know that Dion Phaneuf is so amazing and a real #1 dman. With a real coach like Babcock he's just going to be even better!!!!

- twiztedmike

never once said he was a #1 or worth the money but he's way better than franson

Know who else was a big, tall defenseman? Keith Aulie

Know who else? Ryan O'Byrne

We definitely should have attempted an Aulie-O'Byrne top pairing

Except Fansons #s are 1000 x better

Neither of those two had the PP time either. Pretty telling what Franson is as soon as he goes to NSH he's bottom pairing who can handle some PP time. Other words a dime a dozen. Move on..

He broke Carter Ashton's career.

Ya, but Andrey Pedan broke Tinordi's...then Stu Bickel broke Pedan's...then lack of talent broke Bickel's...it's a vicious cycle.

I don't use them, I do the silly old way of watching the games.

Not once did I see Franson just get scared and leave the puck
