Leaf Rumours

He was much better in 10/11.

And no, players who have cracked 50 points twice in their careers should not be getting 5.5 million per on a long term deal.
 
Out of the last 3 season, he's had 2 where he's been worth the contract he has now.

It's not unrealistic to want to give him a chance to show that last year was anomalous, especially given the option of buying him out next summer.
 
Would be stupid to trade for any goalie right now.

Go with what we have, for **** sake, it'll only serve us even better this year. And use the money for positions that we're actually weak in.

Go with two kids all year long in a full schedule? Dunno, I think that would be a recipe for Tanenbaum having a heart attack. He told Nonis to get him a number one goaltender after Reimer lost the final game. Not that it was Reimers fault alone, for some reason, we started giving the Bruins ten feet of space instead of crowding the shit out of them like we had for two and two third games.. Oh well, live and learn.
 
Pierre Lebrun says that Paul Holmgren has informed Daniel Briere that the Flyers will be buying him out.

He'd be a nice upgrade on Bozak.
 
and he kinda sucked at faceoffs (46% to bozak's 52.5%). And he put up a worse pts/g and total than Bozak. And he's tiny... and soft... and and and. Just not a good fit.

What Grabo brought was absolutely worth $5.5 million. What exactly do you think that kind of money buys you if not very good 2nd liners? Top players are getting $8+. Decent first liners like Semin are getting $7. Its market value for what Grabo was the last two seasons.
 
Yeah, Brier may still have his playoff magic, but aside from that he's looking pretty done.

Small centre who can't stay healthy or really play centre anymore... no thanks.
 
For the last time... He isnt a centre. Hes a perfectly fine player but he doesnt address ang of this teams needs
 
With JVR, Kessel and Lupul, this team shouldn't spend the big dough on another winger. Especially a smallish, skilled winger.
