Hehe listening to a podcast right now and the guys are complaining about the TTC and the asinine shift changes that happen during rush hour and how it just makes people stand around waiting.

Amen to that, freakin' TTC is managed so horrifically it just compounds all the other problems. It's a service fellas, don't have a damn shift change at 830am!

Not a bad Idea. We can't keep Rielly,Gardiner and Franson. Too much of the same.

Make a choice and replace with a stay at home guy . Need more of that.

Rielly goes nowhere so a choice between the 2 left and I can't stop looking at Franson's -14.

- D.Lemieux


i'd keep gards over franson.. franson is a contract nightmare waiting to happen and at least with gards there is still a chance he can be coached into respectability defense wise.

moving franson likely would get you a nice prospect and pick too
- Dozzer


you guys blame the TTC when the shift change is likely governed by the union agreement

because of union demands you guys all suffer.

Dan Boyle would be a sexy pickup, and Id be comfortable giving him a 2 year deal at the right price too.

An actual mentor and leader for our young D to learn from too. Its really what we need, Im sold.

Sharks want Kulemin?

- Bigzby


Can't see the Sharks wanting to move him.

Look to the bottom of the standings if you want to see who's available. Pending UFA's on Edm, Cal, Buf, Flo, and NYI. Some team is going to grossly overpay for Tallinder and McDonald at the deadline.

I think Nonis ends up sitting tight ...maybe adds a depth dman like he did last year.

3 year age difference at this point is a huge difference too. Franson is 27 next season, he is who he'll be defensively.

Excellent which one of us is going to call Nonis to let him know what we've decided to do?

Say a heart and soul guy, not a North American guy.

I'd take a Danny Markov or Volchenkov in the d-core any day

Neither of them fit the laid out profile.

he'll also be overpaid due to his offense.

the fact they havent started talks yet (i think) seems to be a good sign...

My Don mills bus skips 915-930 (when I need it to catch the 936 other bus). Then goes. 930-31-32. WTF!!!


They need to plan their routes better. When you got a line that runs twice an hour (936-46) you need to have the interconnecting bus make it there on time. Half the time I don't and spend the last 15 minutes before work sprinting there (which has been terrible in the arctic cold and sweaty all day after)

Notice how all Leaf fans LOVE THEIR TEAM. But always hate one or 2 that they blame for everything. IE Clarkson and Franson.

The Clarkson hate is stupid. Franson isn't really hated as much as we are all starting to see exactly what he is.
