Glad he has decided to take winniks role. I expect 2 more 2nds.

[uncleben]

[Romang67]

Nice. Another good move by the leafs

Agreed. MOAR picks at next deadline.

I mean... Sturdy tough defensive play.

Keep them coming.

 

[Savvy]

Adds more toughness, strengthens the right side and here's hoping comes with a good number for a easy move if they miss

 

[ViewsFromThe6ix]

Free 2nd round pick next deadline!

 

[dubey]

The gift that keeps on giving

 

[Teemu]

Negative one years is about right

 

[Diatomic]

winnik 2.0 haha

 

[Ainec]

to be flipped for a pick at the TDL again lol

 

[Liminality]

It worked out well for Polak last time too. Showed what he brought to other teams while playing for the Leafs, gets traded to a playoff team and nearly won a Stanley cup. Sure he doesn't mind doing the same song and dance again.

 

[jasonleaffan]

Excellent free agency by Toronto so far. Sure we missed our big fish, but at least we never went ahead and spent stupid money. Roman is some more sand paper just what we needed.


And a few more picks next spring.

"we're happy to have him back Oct-thru-Jan"

 

[boredmale]

Sweet they can trade him at the deadline for a 2nd/3rd rounder then resign him next year. lol

 

[Schenn]

Winnik 2.0. Not even mad.

 

[ponder]

Gross, I prefer both Marincin and Carrick on the bottom pairing. Polak is still a hard hitter, and pretty fast skating forward, but brings very little to the table other than that. Thought he looked terrible for the Sharks in the playoffs.

This seems like a step backwards to me, the only positive is that I guess he can be dealt at the deadline again?

 

[Man Bear Pig]

Welcome back Roman. Now get out.
