Isnt he gone 4-6 months?Ouch.I would be surprised if he got an offer for over 1 million per year.He has to prove his knee is not shot.

Sounds like there is a very good opportunity here for the Leafs to take advantage of. He'll like Toronto much better and the Leafs need leadership. Coliacavo will have a training buddy and we save 5 million by not re-signing the Egg.

likely? This guy has been a bust since he signed his big contract. His numbers dropped - numbers he only got in the first place because he was playing on the best line in hockey at the time - and he's become injury prone. He better plan on $2 mil per year offers, because anyone that offers him more is a fool. If he wants to stay with Vanny, he'll have to take the Hometown Discount, because otherwise I think they are putting this guy out on the curb. This is a team that needs to re-build, badly. The Defence isn't horrid, but lacks a star, and the offense is anemic this side of the Sedins. The goaltending is all they have to stand on. Its Bob Luongo and a bunch of plugs. Missing the playoffs may be the best thing that could happen to open Nonis' eyes, who is riding the Luongo trade thievery a little too much now - he has to make a move, or risk his job, in my eyes

Agree with eveything you said Go, the offence left this team when Bert broke Moore's neck. Goodbye Bert, goodbye Crawford, goodbye Naslund-Bert-Morrison line, hello massive pressure on Sedins, hello Luongo, hello Vaingault(sp?) goodbye offense, goodbye Morrison.

Im torn here...i like Morrison...but i hate the Canucks sooooo much....

Peter Goezinya | 03/28/08, 02:37 PM

No kidding Go, I like Morrison too Peter, and I'll echo the same sentiments as Baun-ded did above, if the Leafs can get him for around 1 mill for 1 year, than I'd welcome him to Leaf Nation with open arms.

Bentley00 - Welcome Schenner | 03/28/08, 03:03 PM

Would love to see this guy in a Leafs uniform..., I think $1 million for a year is the right amount for this guy. He's been a great player for the Nucks for a long time but, I think he needs a change of scenery and in Toronto..., there will be a lot of it!

Kev316 | 03/28/08, 03:07 PM

Do you guys really think that the Leafs need another old, beat up player at the end of his career? I thought you wanted CHANGE in Toronto?

goCanada! is a happy man! | 03/28/08, 03:19 PM

You got that right goC. It's too bad that this had to happen. NY Rangers anybody? They like to sign guys that are hurt and/or past their prime (Bure, Jagr, etc..).

wtnelson | 03/28/08, 03:31 PM

Whoa, dude is 33? Wow, for some reason I thought he was younger than that. I'm going to have to retract my previous statement, I was under the impression he was like 28-29.

Bentley00 - Welcome Schenner | 03/28/08, 04:33 PM

Uh oh, if he misses 4-6 months, he'll miss the first half of the playoffs.

Here's what nathan9311 thinks of the miltary people dying in Iraq:

'Heck, I'm American and I agree that the Iraq war is a big pile of dogsh*t and has been since it began. I'm not too worried though, it's not me getting blown up for nothing. '

apparently, it's no biggy since HE won't be dying or getting injured
