The Overpaid and underachieving Leafs
Posted 5:25 PM ET | Comments 0
It's clear that in the yet again New NHL and the Leafs highest paid player is Grabovski a complete misfit to that contract so WTF!
He in simple terms sucks, he doesn't protect the puck, he doesn't go hard to the net, he doesn't score in the shootout, he doesn't make the players around him better. Look for him to be a buyout of course his wife who spends all his money will be very happy.
The second Leaf to be on the buyout route is not a surprise to anyone but that will be Komisarek clearly he in not valued at 4.5 but may be a better fit at 1.75 million somewhere else.
What will be interesting are the guys like MacArthur who is at 3.25 and is UFA, or Tyler Bozak who by all observations is more like a 3rd line guy but both of these guys are UFA so my guess is either they give a hometown discount like under 2 million or 1 of these guys is Gonzo.
Look for Colbourne to replace either of these guys.
The Leafs in the near future will look like this;
Forwards:
Kulemin Kadri Lupel
Kessel Bozak JVR
Mclement, Komorow, Frattin
Orr, Colbourne, Maclaren,
On D
Phaneuf, Franson
Gunnarson, Gardiner
Fraser, Liles
Blacker, Kostka
There you go have fun ripping me apart for spelling and bad thinking LOL
