Game 65: Maple Leafs @ Les Habs 7:00pm - The New Era ?

[lamajama]

Grabovski is so not a 5 million dollars a year player.

It's a GDT... an we keep the trolling to a min?

FIrst game under a new coach and new system and you are going to use it to say he's not worth 5 mill? i'll give him 5 mill anyday. He's been the heart and soul of this team on so many nights it's not even funny. YOu take away his effort and his contributions and we'd not even have a whiff of the playoffs. Hell we'd be giving the hab-nots a run for cellar dwellers.

Edit... what do you have to say now? Grabbo to the rescue. God he loves to play against the habs.

If the rest of the team played like him we wouldn't be where we are. Totally correct. Hope we keep him which I think Burke does cuz it will be hard to replace him.

Not at anything above $5 million I hope. I would hope his terrible fading has resulted in a more reasonable contract - plus you have to wonder who are not Carlyle-type players. I would think we're going to see a lot more turnover again this summer. Then again I guess after the playoffs are lost again why not.

Schenn's been hitting everything.

What trolling? I thought we lost an entire season of hockey so 50 pt players don't get 5 million dollars a season.

There are guys making 8 mill a year to score 10 pts.

Grabbo is worth his weight in gold or in this case 5 mill easily.

I think you are in a huge minority of people who feel that grabbo isn't worth that kind of money.

You are using Gomez to make a point? Really? Gomez had a 84 pts a year before he got his massive deal. Talk to me when Grabovski gets 84 pts.

43% of the players Burke has drafted are from the OHL

I think it's all irrelevant anyhow since it's not yours or my money that will be paid to him whenever he gets his contract.

Yes it's not my money but it is the team i cheer for and ave lived and died behind for decades.

By saying that someone who scores 50-60 pts a year isnt worth x amount of dollars is crazy. You have to take into account other things besides stats.
You have to take into consideration his two way play, his heart and desire to win, his willingness to goto the dirty areas, take hard/dirty hits and keep on going. Unless you consider all the facets of a players game you are simply never looking at the full picture.

Is what he brings to the table worth 5 mill? In two feet and a heartbeat it is.

Besides how can you not like a guy who just loves/lives to stick it to the habs?

Grabs is all over the ice....sign this guy. we need more heart and drive like this kid. me like,

Release the hounds! He just needed the okay to play his game?

Don would be quick to point out that that's less than 100%.

Where's Stamkos from LOL.

Jesus man you have a narrow vision... i used him as a example because as we are playing the habs it easily came to mind. There are a lot of guys making way to much for the output they provide. Gomez is simply the poster child for this issue.

 

[pnjunction]

Gus has been good since the 1st he's probably going to need to be great on this PK

 

[lamajama]

Admit it. We're all scared now.

That is statistic that Don needs to hear.

Sure. Give him 4.5, give him 5, whatever. Doesn't mean they make the playoffs or not. He is one important piece, but they have more serious issues to address then Grabo.

 

[lamajama]

Does Day-har-nay meet the minimum height requirements to go
on this ride?

 

[L K]

Gus looked good on the PK, tracking the puck well.

 

[Berard34]

We are going to need to play a lot better than this on Tuesday vs BOS, but as of right now I'd play Gus again.

 

[Tigger]

That's just not true, have a look at ufa centres and how much they make in his snack bracket. I mean argue all you want that it is or isn't good value for Toronto but 5 is probably under market value for him.

 

[Berard34]

Cmon Dion - you can't make sheety 5 foot dish passes like that and expect your D partner to keep it in.

hmmmmm, I go watch my Colts game for a couple minutes and someone ties it up. Whose bear do I owe a posting for?
