I think the reason Racine was sent down was to get into a bunch of games. He'll develop much faster playing in 50-60 games with the Marlies than with the 20 or so he'd play with the Leafs. He'll probably be the #1 for the Leafs in a year or 2.

I'm starting to believe they are giving up on Tellqvist though. Eklund posted that they are interested in Noronen, and Telli certainly has shown much reason for optimism.

As a sidebar, the Marchment rumor started because he missed a practice for a meeting with JFJ over his health. According to Rick Ley, he spent the night in the hospital. He has not been cut. Personally I think they should keep him. He'd be the ideal 7th dman. I heard the Carlo hasn't had a great camp, so maybe he needs to start the year with the Marlies?

*applauds*

I totally agree on everything you said. As a Habs fan...seeing a waste of roster space like Kilger in TOR makes me sad. The guy has been a bust since the beginning...and still teams keep him. He must be good at something...sucking up to coaches? *shrugs*

Kellwood was very impressive...not perfect but impressive. Can he be better than Kilger? Totally. Same goes for Racine. The guy was great, but he's sent down while Aubin (who could not even earn a spot in PIT...before Fleury was there) is still with the club. Tellqwist(sp?)...? Seems to me he's taking a loooong time developping his game.

Quinn is simply too old school for today's hockey. They need to inject some news blood at the helm of this team...or its gonna be another Cupless year...or even years for TOR.

Though I would love to have a good veteran D-man to come play in Pittsburgh, Sir knee-to-knee isn’t my first choice, I just couldn’t get behind a dirty player. The same goes for Hal “I’m still going to hook and hold as much as I can” Gill.

I sort of see the idea but I really do think they have to give someone a chance on the blueline. If there is any place where they have some decent young talent it is on the blueline...

White

Bell

Colaiacovo

Kronvall

Harrison

Wozniewski

The only one of those players who has not shown that he has NHL potential so far is Bell...

I think they have to at least try with a couple kids. Let's face it, they are not serious about thinking they can win this year, or even next, thus all the one year contracts... rebuilding is going to be a tough pill to swallow but they have no choice. There is no future *now*.

I think that'd be a good fit. The Pens could use a tough, verteran defenceman, and I doubt he'll cost them much.
