As long as he keeps it up and doesn't do the disappearing act like last year's playoffs.

Like he and everybody else did in last year's playoffs? Why single him out for that miserable excuse for a series? He'd disappeared much worse in years previous.

Cause he is suppose to be a leader and a veteran. Everyone knew we couldn't rely on the kids the entire time and they slowed down in te pkayoffs(after carrying the team there).

All the vets let this team down. But Franzen is just an easy target. No one wnats to bad talk dat z or kronwall.

To be fair, Dats had 3 goals in 2 assists in 5 games. Z had a goal and an assist in the 2 games he played and he was coming off a long injury. Mule had 0 goals and 2 assists and was a -2 in 5 games.

The whole team was pretty craptacular but I agree you expect more from those top 3 guys. Dats and Z did pretty well considering. Mule, not so much. Especially given his lackluster stretches during the regular season are accepted because we're waiting for playoff beast mode.

Exactly, no one wants to bad talk the other team leaders but Franzen has become the LGW whipping boy for some time now and it is "the thing to do"... Franzen was just as much a part of carrying the team into the playoffs as any of the kids were, including Nyquist in my opinion, as well as Alfie. Franzen was in beast mode for the better part of the home stretch last season but he still gets s*** because people think he should be doing more. Why? He is what he is and it's time people realize that he's a streaky player like most goal scorers in the league. He is well worth his cap hit and is off to another fantastic start this season. He seems like a much better skater out there and seems to becoming a little more consistent, let's hope it continues instead of hoping he fails...
