Phaneuf was a leader, he was a straight up guy, and a damn good player for us.
Wish him all the best. Just don't catch Marner or Nylander with their heads down please.

I thought this was an appreciation thread? Some of the comments don't really fit that criteria.
Will miss his slapper from the point. Like Kessel, it's a real shame we couldn't surround these guys with some more talent.
That's because some people think they are being edgy, when they are just being ignorant.
I'll miss his open ice hits and his effort level, he always seemed to try hard and he seemed to be well liked.
Grow up, Dion Phaneuf wasn't GM of the team it wasn't 'his era'.Thanks for reminding me that the Leafs didn't come prepared to play during many post-game interviews.
Thanks for the era that saw Leafs fans throw waffles and their jerseys on the ice. Glad its over.

Nothing but respect for Dion.
And he's a perfect addition for Ottawa - he'll be a very nice upgrade for them as a #2/3 guy in all situations.
Alright. We know his contract, we know the moments of brain dead-ness

Can someone post his stats while a Leaf? Can't access a computer right now.
