Because they suck or because they be gettin' paid too much?They all have cleared the waivers
Borgman who has not played the right side in North America? Borgman who definitely isn't better than Rielly, Muzzin, Sandin, Dermott? Borgman who hasn't played an NHL game in 20 months?
P.S. I've always wondered whether something happened off the ice with Borgman that never came to public attention. He got buried quickly and permanently after starting 48 of 53 NHL games as a rookie.
I guess all the paranoid people claiming Babcock would have Harpur in the starting line-up can go back to their caves.
Personally I didnt think that, but I guess it was a reasonable scare, he proved he doesn't know what he was doing in the last meaningful game the Leafs played.I guess all the paranoid people claiming Babcock would have Harpur in the starting line-up can go back to their caves.

I really like Gaudet. If he continues to develop with the Marlies we have ourselves a great find. Has history with Dubas.
He's a big body, throws his weight around, has some scoring touch and has speed. Definitely a Babcock type player. Maybe a Hyman replacement?????
Not sure there's much development left in a 26 year old. The problem sometimes is that some players go all out in pre-season and look so much better than their skill and ability level. When the season rolls around, the sample size is much larger and you can see why they are pretty below average in terms of quality.
I was also impressed with his play though. If he can play like he did in pre-season with the Marlies, he might be able to sneak into another contract for next season and perhaps be a useful depth player.
Marleau was playing more than Matthews.
Who had more shifts? Perhaps Matthews was not in good enough shape to handle more minutes?
