Mike Augello: Morgan Moving Into Lineup?

last

the leafs would go far, if it wasn't for our terrible D corps. If we don't address it, we aren't getting past the 2nd round IF we make the playoffs....

give them a couple more games before you anoint them TERRIBLE

Was Fraser terrible last year? Franson? Phaneuf?

If you answered yes to all 3...then yes they are teribble

Fraser had terrible foot speed, this year seems improved. I should clarify - not terrible D, but i think we have the forwards and the Goalies to make a playoff run. Our D is terrible when compared to contenders.

D aren't to bad Dion/Gunner, Franson/Fraser while not being the best top 4 in the league are very reliable in both ends, this will be the year Franson makes himself a fixture on the lifes blue line for the next decade replacing Dion. Gardiner is more along the lines of Letang great offence no defence needs to ply with someone like fraser or gunner who can protect him. Give Ranger 10 games to get back to speed, if he isnt up to it send him back to the A

Here we go.

There is nowhere to hide now, they have no choice.

I feel like Franson would effectively replace him, offence is there for sure, D greatly improved and very reliable, only knock against him is physical play which he was started to bring(effective hits over monster hits like Dion)

Is Fraser top 4? Yikes... Is he a better option than Liles really?

"Terrible D"



Leaf fans are so passionate

Well ya.....Gardiner looks awful.

He plays a good stay-at-home where as Franson makes the offensive plays.

Good D/Bon D

Prime example of why guys like Colton Orr are needed!

I loved the smack down he laid on Rosehill for that cheap check on Frasor!

Long Live Enforcers!

To answer your question from the previous blog. No. I am not.

Is that a serious question?

I'd probably rather have Liles in the lineup (as bizarre as that sounds).

Franson, Gardiner and Rielly at one time is just too much inexperience and free-wheeling.

so Leafs will send Gardiner to Calgary for two firsts and a second.

Well Franson has probably been our best d-man so far (neck and neck with Dion), so he's not in that convo.

I'll happily take Gardiner or Rielly over Liles.
