Great news. Trade Phaneuf. Fire Nonis. Buyout Clarkson. And don't pick up the option on Carlyle for next year and we are golden.

Unload that shitty ass contract?

 

[Phil The Thrill]

Eh. Cap is going up and Phaneuf can be a strong number #2 on contenders and a number #1 on playoff bubble teams.

Question is which team would be dumb enough to take Dion's contract?

The leafs are so prone to bad decisions its ridiculous. That contract was awful, especially if you're gonna trade him so soon.

 

[Phil The Thrill]

It could be worse. All the Leafs have to do is retain $1 million to $2 million.

I agree. As a Leafs fan, the one thing that pisses me off more than anything about the team is the front office. Signing Phaneuf to that contract was one thing but signing Clarkson to his contract when Grabovski and MacArthur have done well in their respective new clubs, ugh. I just want to punch Nonis in the face for that and keeping Carlyle.

How can I forget about that clarkson contract

 

[Phil The Thrill]

Yeah just brutal with the whole Grabovski and MacArthur situation. Grabo easily have had a bounce back season for the Leafs and his contract better.

Fuck Nonis. The guy is clown.
