OR this guy

Can he play the point? I think Franson would be just as good as Jagr on the right point.

Perfect - could have anticipated this, they sell out every home game against Leafs, threaten to ban Leaf fans from buying tickets, and then can't sell out playoff games to their lousy fans. Now this.

You know it's a joke right.

A damn funny one, and completely believable, but still a joke.

Brian Boyle trade was far from a F. With a touch of luck we get to the 2nd round or further....and he played a pretty good part of it. Sucks he didnt resign...that's the chances you take.

- annoyed


Boyle didn't score a goal, was okay at faceoffs, didn't help us get to the 2nd round, was a shadow of his Tampa self and went off as a UFA. Boyle was a rental for a 2nd round pick that helped Tampa more than Leafs so I view his time here as a failed attempt. It is also July and not a lot to debate that will amount to much. Thanks for reading my earlier rant. MiB's work is not that interesting anymore.

He did make a nice pass to Kapanen in game 2 OT.

We'll agree to disagree on the Boyle failure.

Pretty sure he had the best Faceoff % 5v5 on the team in the playoffs..I wish we had resigned him myself.

Having a couple bloggers is great IMO.

boyle didn't bring what was expected.
hence he wasn't offered a new contract by leafs.
he wanted to go back to tampa, but they didn't want part of him either

I always like Boyle but he sucked here.

I got the feeling he didn't even want to be a Leaf at all.

Glad he's gone.

I think Gauthier at some point soon (maybe already) can provide the same or more than Boyle did. Probably will be 1 year of Moore then Gauthier in that slot.

Probably.... hopefully he can recover from the leg injury. He was really coming on at the end of the year for the marlies

I assume he will start with the Marlies to ensure the leg works then if either Kadri or Moore get injured he will come up. I think Sosh or Leivo will be #1 for winger fill ins.

i liked boyle in the 4th line role, but moore @ $1M > Boyle @ $2.7M for a 4C imo.

I would like the Goat to take Moore's spot but I guess we will see how he heals.

Moore like Boyle can fit in other spots higher up the roster. Boyle priced himself out of Toronto plus 2 years was one year too long.

If Gauthier ever scored even 10 goals I would be shocked.

Perhaps he will have his head down trying to locate the puck when someone will finish their check. He is not liked by several teams.
