Excellent blog MasWE. Thoughtful, well reasoned, and gives Leaf fans plenty to chew on.

Adam Kirshenblatt: The Debate of Dion Phaneuf - MasWE
Get #3 a shut down player to cover his rear when he decides to go on one of his risky plays. Or maybe he just has trouble in the big game? Who knows? All I do know is that I'm no longer allowed to say he isn't one of the best Dmen in the league. Some guys don't like that. |

Nobody should take anything EA Sports has to say to heart. Especially when EA was voted the worst company in America two years in a row... |

Adam Kirshenblatt: The Debate of Dion Phaneuf - MasWE
Good read Adam, I agree completely with your logic.
You may want to edit "D-corpse" to "D-corps" though. They may have looked dead at times, but I think they still had a pulse. |

We're going to regret that trade or it might just perfectly balance each other both young guys that can improve. |

some are regretting it in philly, but it was an even swap & philly would need to make another similar move to balance out up front & back. |

Philly's pretty solid up top...Need a #1 or 2 dman to get the show on the road...I'm sure they'll add another top 6 forward as well... |

Adam Kirshenblatt: The Debate of Dion Phaneuf - MasWE
Nonis has a tough decision to make on Dion's future with Leafs. First and foremost is he captain material on and off the ice. We the fan can only guess at that. I like Dion but not at 6.5M and any new contract offer would need to head south. If Nonis decides he is not captain material or cannot sign him to a reasonable extension he needs to be traded before season starts. Trading your captain during the year or at trade deadline would be disruptive to a young team trying to make the next step. Bottom line this team needs a couple of minute eaters and trustworthy d-men for last 2 minutes of a game. |

Did anyone see Domi's pass to Horvat last night? TRADE UP Nonis. |

I think he played a big role in getting this team to the playoffs both on and off the ice. Everyone wants to jump on him saying he not captain material. He took a team that was supposed to bottom of the east and captained them into 5th in the east. He's doing a good job everyone needs to look at the positives he brings not always negatives. |

Too many fans and media forget this....expectations on Rielly will be unrealistically high from day 1 in a Leafs jersey. |
