Phaneuf has actually been exactly what most of us hoped this season. Not a star by any stretch, but a stabilizing presence on the 2nd pairing who plays in all situations. No complaints whatsoever. And to say that he drags the team down when we had a blue-line featuring Jared Cowen, Patrick Wiercioch and (regularly) Mark Borowiecki last season is a bit absurd.

Ryan on the other hand...

Not that he's a "star," but if you saw how bad Ron Hainsey is on a nightly basis, you wouldn't believe this guy was ever a solid NHL player as recently as last year.

Montreal has 46 points to Toronto's 31. How many points ahead of you do you think we would without him? 25? 30?

Its nice to see a Leafs fan be so positive about the Habs roster to think we be so infinitely better than them if not for one player. Way to stay positive amid your teams failure! :handclap::handclap:

I understand Iginla isn't the same Iginla we all remember, but is he really the one dragging the team down when you have Rene Bourque (yes I know he is leading the team in goals some how), Joe Colborne and Blake Comeau in your top 6/9.
