Arencibia sucks.......period.

I like the way Lawrie has bounced back the last month, but there is not much else to be optimistic about for Jays fans right now.

"Coaches and GMs, you guys want that, you've been asking for more goals [through the] five hole," Giguere said. "So if your goalie gives up a goal five hole, you need to take a breath and remember that you asked for it. It's not our fault."

Eller

Its a Habs thing, isn't it. If you were a Bruins fan, a long or big answer would have been acceptazble, I bet.

Trade Franson, take a 1st and a prospect for him, call him a day, sign Kadri to 5 year deal worth 4 million. Then you have close to a million in cap space.

How about we try to keep both and trade a guy like Kulemin or Liles, if we have to. We need Franson.

Good move by the Caps, should be an improvement over Ribero.

Gotta be done though, Kulemin is going to command over 5M next season. The only way he doesn't is if he really wants to stay in Toronto and he takes an 8 year deal at 3.5M a season with a full NMC (which won't happen), or Kulemin gets worse this season and is only worth 2-3M on a short term deal.

In any case with our top 6 already set, a bunch of eager prospects, and a low cap someone has to go and It looks like Liles can't be moved.

Kadri wanting 6 years at 5/6M is insane!

My best guess is Kadri sucks it up midway through training camp takes a 2 year deal averaging just under 3M/year for 2 years. Franson holds out until a few weeks in the season then one of a few things happens; Liles is traded and Franson takes just over 3/year bridge, or Franson gets trade, or he begrudgingly takes a 1 year at under 3.

Bottom line is Nonis remains patient and both RFA learn exactly what that status means under this CBA/cap.
