I will try to do a follow up post, but he seems even less well known then Jeff Finger. <BR/>It could be as simple as Frogren replacing Kronwall on the depth chart, or it could be an indication that Cliff is serious about changing the character of the team on the ice and in the dressing room.<BR/>Also, Cliff has been dealing picks and letting guys go, so it's nice to pick up something for free. Now he has a surplus to continue dealing with.general borschevskyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04094251050850687883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3028428008218063470.post-14167865405745445042008-07-04T19:13:00.000-04:002008-07-04T19:13:00.000-04:00Solid overview, general.

Looks like Kronwall and White are the odd ones out. Unless of course, Colaiacovo gets hurt eating cereal again.bkbladeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14993067848904779017noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3028428008218063470.post-78314754909907642132008-07-04T14:52:00.000-04:002008-07-04T14:52:00.000-04:00Hey greener: Thanks.

The same could be said for a Stralman/Coliacovo pairing.<BR/><BR/>All in all the Leafs D doesn't look so bad, over payed, but no bad.Frosthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12279716417819043533noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3028428008218063470.post-69016687370912572072008-07-04T01:16:00.000-04:002008-07-04T01:16:00.000-04:00Great post, general.Great post, general.Greenerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09952185418271357106noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3028428008218063470.post-64988801933155713272008-07-03T17:15:00.000-04:002008-07-03T17:15:00.000-04:00Cheers eyebleaf!

I'm also guessing Wilson won't rush Anton Stralman into the line up, but by mid-season he'll take a regular shift. By that point, there'll have been an injury (Carlo) or two (Carlo again) and space will be available.general borschevskyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04094251050850687883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3028428008218063470.post-90153228892416757332008-07-03T15:59:00.000-04:002008-07-03T15:59:00.000-04:00excellent post. kabby's one of my favourite leafs ...excellent post. kabby's one of my favourite leafs as well. he's been a pleasure to watch over the last 10 years. to see him grow into one of the best puck-moving defenceman in the league has been special. i wouldn't say i was disappointed in his play last year, but he, like the rest of the team, can be better. he's proved it.<BR/><BR/>if mccabe stays, we've got one too many d-men. and in my opinion, stralman has to, absolutely has to, play a lot this year. he showed in the world championships that he can be a big time player. if mccabe stays, white's the odd man out for me, leaving schenn in the minors for the season. <BR/><BR/>i don't see kronwall coming back, at all. unless he wants to be a marlie again. <BR/><BR/>should be interesting to see how the mccabe situation shakes out.Navin Vaswani (@eyebleaf)https://www.blogger.com/profile/08445618400360263938noreply@blogger.com
