Which is fine - I get it.

But why give him away for two handfuls of crap?

- Atomic Wedgie


just because you dont know the players doesnt mean anything.

i dont know kapanen as well as I do Harrington but my guess is Mark Hunter's pinky finger knows more about them than everyone on these boards combined.

to say they are crap is a bit arrogant. especially if you have never seen them play

Because everyone else was offering one, and no one stepped up with three?

So after that is all said and done, how much do Leafs retain on Phaneuf?
2M?

the leafs should retain his entire salary and take a cap dump with a used doggie doo doo bag and be (frank)ing happy about it.

Yeah.

Arcobello now?

- BoTtLePoLiCe

Good undersized player, can play all forward positions. Can do it all except hit the broad side of a barn with the puck. Good player for a Team Like TO. I would take him back as a utility forward on Edmonton, for what it's worth.

Starting to think he'll stay. SJ got their man, EDM too... Who else might have been interested? Philly?

What's Dions attitude/body language like? Is your issue with the ability or the character?

Lots of nice 1 year low risk signings. That can be flipped at the deadline. Leafs might have 15 picks next draft

@jonasTSN1050: Kyle Dubas said Nick Spaling will move back to centre for the Leafs. Had played wing last season.


With that, and the Arcobello signing, we have a lot of Centers on the Leafs atm. I'm assuming Bozak gone sooner than later?

Same with Spalling, Polak, and PA.

If PA does well I think we could get a 1st for him.

I would strip the C from him and take the pressure off of him. Let him work with Babs, maybe get him back to calgary form.

I'm getting worried. We have the space, and Beleskey and Franson are still available..

Let me be the first Leafs fan to say:

Spaling is appalling.

I registered that trademark.

Leafs Nation, welcome to the nuclear winter.
