He seems like a train wreck these days.
I'm not sure this is the best idea.

How can the wheels fall off the Leafs before the SC parade is even over?? Brian Burke is going to have a tough year ahead...penny lane wrote:![]()

Looks like the same maple leaf jersey as always. The tie?

The big redesign is the stripes at the bottom and a old leaf logo patch on the shoulder.penny lane wrote:http://www.thestar.com/sports/hockey/nh ... as-captain

Re: Phaneuf to captain the Leafs
A lot of debate on HF boards about the contract. I think it's fine. He's only 28, team captain, plays 25 minutes a game etc. $7MM is fine, as the cap is going up.
He is definitely a lightning rod for some reason.

Re: Phaneuf to captain the Leafs
Yeah, he plays a tough style and will decline some, but if I was a Leafs fan, I would like this contract a lot. Phaneuf's been good for them.KG wrote:A lot of debate on HF boards about the contract.

I like making fun of them as much as anyone, but the Leafs probably would have been in the ECF last year if not for that Boston miracle.

This. I'm not sure what he does better than other players who play similar minutes besides leaving his position and feet to deliver a hit.Mr. Colby wrote:Extremely over-rated player

Re: Phaneuf to captain the Leafs
More like a Leafs collapse, in my mind. The Leafs stopped skating and didn't support the puck at all in the third period, allowing Boston to hem them in their defensive zone for long periods. Toronto enabled the Boston comeback.Shakes wrote:Yeah, he plays a tough style and will decline some, but if I was a Leafs fan, I would like this contract a lot.

I don't think the Phaneuf contract is bad. And I think it makes the Letang contract look about right, too.

Re: Phaneuf to captain the Leafs
Did they hold that signing in a Super 8?
That bottom pic might be the only time I've seen him smile as a member of the Leafs.

Can't wait till Saturday for 24/7, we'll get to watch him sign it in slow motion.

Re: Phaneuf to captain the Leafs
I think its more likely that we see him walking to the room in real time, walks through the room to the table in slow mo, sign it in 2x time, then walk away in slow mo. Fade out.

Re: Phaneuf to captain the Leafs
I can't remember the guest's name but someone on Sirius NHL on Friday night was ripping Phaneuf, saying more than once, if I had a team I wouldn't want him within 50 miles of it. Said he was poison, etc. I don't exactly follow the Leafs but that seemed unusually harsh.
