Speculation: Why Dion's Next Contract Will Be Cap Friendly

[Duke Silver]

Phaneuf hasn't been on the ice for an even-strength goal against in over 6 games.

Obviously this is not entirely Phaneuf's doing, but it's a pretty noteworthy streak. Last ESGA was Eric Staal in game 7 vs. Carolina.

7 million for Dion? No thanks. A declining asset in my eyes.

We lose Phaneuf and we'll be as bad as the Jets. Barely floating, but mostly sinking. I'm hoping for 7m x 6.

Dude im so with you, I think toronto is blinded by the C. He is not a very good player at all, no wonder he is rated #1 overrated by the players year after year. They know because they play against him every night. He cant make a pass out for his life, Makes a big hit 1 out of every 5 games, skates like he's in quick sand. Of course he has the most points as a D on our team he is on every PP and has high minuets. Doesn't mean they are good minuets. Just spend a whole game and watch him, always one hand on the stick with little to no compete level

I wish we could stop with the "voted #1 overrated by the players ..." b.s. You all know who was voted #2 overrated player? Ovie!!! Still believe the poll?

Phaneuf would get 7m a year on the open market.

Bill Watters is a crazy, bitter, irrelevant old man. Bob McGowan is just a babbling idiot.

There isn't anyone at all to replace him: Upcoming D-man UFAs

didju mean Bob McCown? if so ........

although Watters is a bitter man as you described his hate on for the Leafs is reaching Healian proportions and that was an absolutely idiotic thing he twatted
