This is a good price for Lebda who is a solid # 4 0r 5 defenseman who has skating speed and skills. You need depth to make it through the playoffs and this is one more piece of the puzzle. It couldn't hurt game habits that he has played with Lindstrom his whole NHL career. Good solid player. Quit whining Leafs fans and pull your faces out of the fantasy stat sheet and get a grasp on reality. You sign a good player who has integrity and skills. Man you guys cry alot don't you?

:rotflmao: SUCKERS!!!!

Thanks, for some reason those weren't showing up when I went there myself. Maybe it was a slightly different URL or an older article or something.

My personal favorite is this:

Bye Bye Kaberle! I think this is a good deal, very underrated D-man. Detroit fans will be upset.

Those poor Leafs fans won't know what hit them. Or maybe not since they're used to terrible players with bloated contracts.

"Leafs announce they've signed free agent defenceman, Brett Lebda to a 2 year contract."

"$1.45 million x 2 yrs for Lebda."

Just found link to official story http://www.usatoday.com/sports/hockey/nhl/2010-07-07-3459669782_x.htm

Just noticed this is a re thread. I actually looked and dident see it before I posted it. Just delete it mods.

And they think he's got top four potential! :lol:

This is what happens when the two teams only see each other once or twice a year. A healthy scratch/seventh D that goes between Detroit and Toronto in the off-season, and gets a savior-like reputation in the new city? With that storyline, I'd have thought we signed Exelby.

Good for Lebda. He can be a solid D-man there. Maybe he can develop into a more offensive Dman. He makes a great first pass out of the zone, skates like wind and has a damn good shot. Good luck Brett and thanks for the beers at Duggan's.

That's ALL Lebda brings to the table at this point. Speed and speed only. Not sure which player you thought you were watching. But Lebda's passing ability is nothing to write home about. His shot has seamed to get worse and worse over the past few years. And he's atrocious defensively. But atleast it sounds like he's great at buying beer. He'll be able to buy even more beer with that insane pay raise Burke just gave him.

bwahahahahhaahahahhaahahahahahhaha!!!!!!

My thoughts exactly. I never hated Lebda as much as some here, and his drunken post-cup radio interview is part of Wings Lore for me, but still - $1.45M for a 6/7 defenceman?

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! :D

Lets see all the Burke lovers defend this
