Good question actually. But I'm happy paying him 1.3 I think hes worth that.

yeah, said that yesterday. any veteran defenceman capable of playing a regular top-6 role (not an injury fill in but a guy in the top 6 from day 1) should be making well over a million. 1.3-1.5 sounds fair.

Good thing ur not a gm

My friend, your attempt to insult me has actually helped to prove that you are a fool. Thank you very much for your contributions. I'm sure my job choices are much more on par with that of a GM than your own. Thanks again.

I would pay Fraser 1.3

Anyone know if Fraser's camp asked for a 2 year SPC? or 1 year SPC for his arbitration hearing?
- vermie22


I read somewhere that if the player elects arbitration then the team gets to select whether it's a 1 or 2 year deal.

A cent over 1 mill is too much ..... but odds are he will end up with more

phaneuf-gunnarsson
gardiner-franson
ranger-fraser

i think is a pretty good top 6

could even have ranger-gardiner
and keep the fraser-franson from last year and just use franson on the PP as well.

think when they all walk into the hearing, the arbitrator is just gonna look at them and be like "you (frank)ing idiots. this is a 6th defenceman we're here for. you know that right?"

depends how you look at it, Orr makes 1 million, i feel Fraser in the big picture, brought more to the team than Orr, and Orr had his best season in a long time last year.

and orr is proven, where as Fraser isn't nearly as so. He shouldn't be paid like a guy that is guaranteed a spot when he's clearly not.

Happy McFraser Day! Today is the day Leaf fans and haters unite in a display of overdramatic behaviour and irrational thought all about Mark Fraser and his new contract. Yay!!!!!!

so 1 mil is ok but 1.1-1.2 isnt lol

im not going to argue 100k out of 60+ million cap

fraser did his job as a third pairing d man and dropped the mits and blocked shots, il just leave it at that.

exactly, people need to look at comparables around the league, not what fits into their capgeek prediction.
