I would prefer to take a bad deal back with less term, get the other team to throw in a pick or prospect to make it worth it....
- aminnes

agreed... a good vet with good character preferably

(frank) no doubt. Imagine what it'll be like spending your well earned money. Probably worse than anything.

I've been doing my damndest to not line the pockets of MLSE for a little while now. haven't been to a game in a couple years. Don't buy merch. Hell, I stream the games online.

(frank) those (frank)ing (frank)ers

If the current Leafs team played against the team they're paying to not play for them... who would win?

...

He'll look really good on a good team. Not quite 7 million good though.
- daeth

Considering what others are getting paid, I don't think 7 million is that far off. He's looks worse because our team is poop.

Your mom.

unnecessary, go take a nap.

Yeti, were always on the same page.

That's because I couldn't believe it wasn't butter.

Will he be the 3rd or 4th in that proper pairing?
- weirdoh

nah... general consensus last night is that Dion really isn't anything more than a 5-6 guy... you know like Tim Gleason.

I mean, clearly they Leafs should give him to Detroit, pay 2M of his salary, take Weiss and Kindl back and send a 1st rounder along with him to keep Holland happy.

How come the team is shtt??

Nice! That was a beauty!

good man... i think the willingness to suck up and pay for the clarkson mistake at least shows they are willing to do what ever it takes to win now...

The question is, will a trade enable Dion to understand how to cover his man in front?...

he has the 7th highest cap hit among dmen, that's a bit much especially considering the term

Damien Cox @DamoSpin
Geez. You'd almost think Dion wasn't trying there. So weak, so passive.

Who the fk would trade for that...

will it make him faster? Make his shot not miss the net by 15 feet constantly.....

Probably. Because as a 5/6/7 dman he'll not have too many chances to make that mistake.

decent players can exist on bad teams. even elite players can (crosby rookie season, etc).

I just thought it was because Bernier sucks.

- daeth

I know this is hypothetical but in 2/3 years when the cap rises a few times his salary wont be near the top 10.

Teams that know what talent really is, and teams that know he's "worth every penny". Clearly you sitting behind a computer screen don't know poop.

So as he enters his mid 30's his contract might be satisfactory... Sounds good...

Unless we get a good return, I hope phaneuf stays.
Without him we are basically edmonton.
all this retain salary, and take a bad contract back is
Nonsense

oh
