Ugh.....Dubas' other pet project needs to go away.
Showcase him for what? He's been waived twice. No takers.Would much rather have Petan than Spezza/Shore.
Plus the more opportunities the showcase him, the better.

He's not replacing those guys either. He's just another body almost exactly like the Leafs already have far too much of, but worse.
Korshkov please....No sense in complaining about the best Marlies option... Who else would you want up? Bracco??

Absolutely rather have Petan or any other Leaf or AHLer or beer leaguer than ShoreWould much rather have Petan than Spezza/Shore.

When Marner gets back, there will be no room for his cap hit.Good choice. I think he will get his shot, but sometime in the new year
Going unclaimed means absolutely nothing in terms of value anymore. In many cases clearing waivers increases your value.
If he gets a chance to get into the lineup consistently, and plays well, someone will take a chance on him. There are a lot of teams with terrible forward depth, and it's not like the acquisition cost is high, so it would be a low risk-medium/high reward for a lot of those teams.
Play him with Tavares or on the 3rd line. Maybe he'll actually get a chance to shine for once, considering he hasn't played higher than the 4th line consistently pretty much at all in his career thus far.
I read all of your tweets in Poulin's voice and its so annoying LOL, I hate the guy on TSN radio and the panel enough as is.Petan is not an NHL caliber player. This has been proven time after time. Can’t wait to watch him play in the top 6 and do absolutely nothing.
“Showcase him” LOL. No one wants this guy. What is wrong with Dubas???

We already know what doesn't work, let's try something different. Petan doesn't move the needle for the Leafs in any direction but down.
I have been advocating that all season. But it appears they team will live and die with small players who can't score, can't defend, and can't win a puck battle.Don't you worry about capspace. I anticipate someone like Johnsson will be traded, which will free up 3.5 mil.

I'd go with death by Kumba...............Would much rather have Petan than Spezza/Shore.

that's what I was hoping for too.Korshkov please....
Exactly. It's not like this lineup with Petan hasn't been tried. He's not a difference maker. The Leafs need to see if they have anything else that does make any sort of difference.....which you can never find out by not trying it.I'm surprised Agostino wasn't given another shot. He's been excellent with the Marlies and we all know he's a solid board player. He wasn't very good in pre-season though.
I like Petan personally and I'm sure there's some form of reasoning to have him in the lineup but I think I'm fine with him staying in the AHL for a little while.
