Middle of the pack? Frk and Ehn? Explain that one.

Frk and Ehn really have like, like, like no value. How did you manage to come up with this group of players lol?

Larkin, AA, and Janmark are all doing very well and projected to be highend talents. Of course 1 or 2 might bust, but we really only need one anyway with the emergence of Sheahan. The words also still out on at least 5 of those guys. Being that it's too early to tell what their likely projection is. We could end up with as many as 4 or 5 top 6 C hopefuls by this time next year. Again, we really are fine up the middle. I'm hoping for some pure wingers myself. Hopefully snipers or gritty power forwards (we don't really have any of those)

AA is a beast dude. He's already getting way more hype than Sheahan ever did.

Of our 24 forward prospects at least half play or have played C in their careers. We are fine up the middle. C Larkin Athanasiou Nosek Vahatalo Ferraro Janmark Turgeon Aubry Ehn Hudon Kadeykin HAMPUSSSSSSSSS MELENNNNNNNNNN Notice that 6 of those players were obtained in last years draft (Nosek FA). The C issue has already been addressed. I believe Nastasiuk and Campbell have played some C too, but I'm not positive.

LOL Nash originally traded Franson, along with 3rd liner Matt Lombardi, to TOR for Lebda and Robert Slaney (never played one NHL game). Leafs did something right for once

Franzen trades are so 2011

Fixed

McCollum and Coreau have gotten a lot better and Paterson is really good. Been excited about him for a while. The only one I'm not happy with is Perry, and that's mostly cause I just don't know anything about him. We haven't had this many young goaltenders in our system in a while. Remember when Joey Mac was the starter in GR?

That's pretty much what gritty O-dmen of their caliber go for these days

We have Mrazek, McCollum, Coreau, Paterson, and Perry. 5 goalie prospects. We don't need more.

Classy

Right? Those 22 points are worthless IMO. I hope his concussion makes him never play the game he's become pro worthy at ever again.

Rinaldo was just defending Giroux, try not to make ur PIT fandom that obvious

OK, I'll be entirely honest and say Franson is better than Green, Yandle, and Myers. Green: Injury history plus there's a reason he's regulated to the third pairing by the caps under a defensive minded coach (much like ours). Yandle: Lefty and will still command a hefty trade return. Myers: Sucks Franson: Righty physical puck mover, exactly what we've been missing, and the asking price is cheap. Or does the name Franzon cut to close to home for some of you?

nope, not sure why BUF would move them either

Even if you don't like him, he's beyond a steal for the current asking price.

Frank, you would've been a great Leafs fan

Everyone is just used to over-bashing guys named Franzon

...Frank the tank?

With a necklace made of the heads of his enemies around his neck

The legend grows?

Holland is god

Meijers gets blind sided a bit too much for me

You don't expect much from this team but are somehow reserving judgement at the same time? Explain to us how that works Frank.
