East is gonna be tough this year. Teams need to come out ready to win NOW - Garnie
Atlantic division is gonna be a mess. there are 5 very competitive, solid teams there. i think the team that misses out is the team that doesn't take care of Fla-TB-Buff the way they should.

And he has shown so far that he is ready. To deny him a roster spot after earning it would not send the right message. Let him stay with the team a month or so rotating him in and out for his 9 games and then make the decision to send him back down. Rielly being on the Leafs will not only be for his development but would benefit the team as well. Gardiner needs the Cody Franson treatment and cannot get too comfortable. He needs to raise his compete level and maybe seeing Rielly, who is a similar player, will pressure him to raise his game. - PootieTang

Gardiner sucks. Leafs nation has spoken.
Gardiner and a 1st for Stajan. Colborne makes him expendable. The decision to keep Rielly is already a positive. Should be exciting. |

I think we could even minus us one Dion Phaneuf due to the addition Captain Morgan. Ooops did i just say that?
Rielly for Captain. |

I think it comes down to how those teams play against each other more than anything. Games against teams you're competing with come down to "4 point" games, whereas losing to Fla or Buff, two poop teams, only hurts you but doesn't help the competition. |

(frank). Why did we even sign Franson. Gards could have played all 6 D positions. |

i think the season series among the 5 will be relatively close. |

He might, but unless it's a keeper pool he probably won't put up killer numbers as a rookie. |

What he said. You can't lose to lesser teams, and you can't drop the ball for even a 4-5 game losing skid. |

I'm thinking the Habs need Emelin back or Tinordi is gonna have to take his place and play tough. |

Besides the part at the end where he mentions 3 rookies, and then refers to the 3 as "both"? Twice. |

Fraser was a big part of Franson's success last year like it or not. - honesthockey
That's great. It doesn't make him a 3-4 dman though, just the type of guy who Franson plays well with.
Don't forget that they succeeded while playing easier minutes against lower quality of competition than the others though. Give Gardiner 17-18 minutes of easy time rather than over 20 mins of more difficult time, and he would also look extremely good... |

I don't get why Leafs Nation has turned this into an entire/or, zero sum proposition.
Can we not have two dynamic, swift skating, offensively gifted defensemen? |

And despite contrary opinions, I wouldnt try to develop both on the team this year and try to make the playoffs at the same time. But that's just me. |
