And Franson was gritty....
What dont you understand?
This is simple Burn, you're just not getting it.
To say MacArthur isnt gritty is simply ridiculous. He had 10 less hits than Getzlaf...
He isnt a power forward, big, or a tough SOB that players fear, but he was gritty and wasnt scared to battle along the boards... - jbold
while i am not a big fan of using hits as a gauge for .. well.. anything.. i do agree Mac is a gritty forward
he'd work the boards.. dig pucks out of the corners.. wasnt afraid of going to the net or scrums.
gritty does not mean big power forward. there are lots of gritty little guys |

not sure why he's not a little believable...it's not like he's spewing Reimer and Franson for Kane etc etc.
(frank), he's talking about us bringing in Clitsome - not that far fetched especially with Franson demanding big pay with little proof he can play D.
Might even be a good deal for both teams.
We rid ourselves of Franson/Reimer and hope Clitsome jerseys bring in a windfall - Garnie
Clitsome blows.
If you guys are ready to run out Franson....wait until you get a load of Clitsome. |

Franson is gritty???No.
MAc was weak along the boards. avoided taking hits at the expense of not getting the puck out. MAcArthur wasn't tough or gritty.
What am I not getting?? There is nothing to get. - burn
Youre seriously delusional.. Or you dont know what grit is.. |

i dont agree with the bolded at all
but i do agree on franson, that guy only has high hit totals because he gives the puck away and then grazes the guy.. the ACC stats staff are very generous with their hit counts |

Come on. Franson finished a lot of hits. He turned the puck over, but he wasnt scared to throw his body at someone. |

no jbold.. he would give the pck up and then try to hit the guy
in open ice scenarios he'd try to use his stick 99% of the time.. always shying away from contact at any kind of speed.

I always figured that it was a stopping mechanism for Franson. Given how awful his skating is it's either skate into the other team, or into the boards to stop... |

Franson was the only D that used and sort of force on the Leafs...other than Phaneuf when he would pinch and run over 1 of our own
Just my opinion / Franson had a bad year...I would hope this year would be better if he's still a Leaf. I thought I heard he had a hip injury last year...did any word ever come out about this? |

I know you're kidding around, it is why we have been generous in just deleting posts, the admins really do not like it being posted on the main boards. |

We'll agree to disagree.
But when a player is 2nd in hits, its safe to say, that most of them just aren't love taps.
Ive seen with my own 2 eyes, that he throws his body and doesnt just push a guy.
Take away from the fact that he turns the puck over a lot. He hits, he hits often, and his hits are usually along the boards and take the player out of the play. (Granted, Franson is already out of the play) |

actually thats exactly what he'd do.. and the guy would get by
lead d-men in points and had the worst plus minus on the team
the guy is a snap shot and not much else.. been saying it for years |

He's not that good. He's a 5'11 Dman who is a good skater. He's basically a less offensive Liles who hits more.
He really doesnt add anything to the Leafs |

Franson led in hits this year..... don't tell me how many hits mac had and tell me he's gritty and tough. He wasn't close to tough and gritty.
If you are fighting (the right guys) and winning like they were during the lockout the others feel bigger. last year the big guys weren;t fighting and/or winning os the team felt smaller and played smaller. I didn't say was the only thing, but it plays a part. - burn
Gardiner had 108 hits.... Gardiner is gritty! |
