What your doing is called detailing. It means you take a narrow point and insist that if the narrowest point proves invalid than the larger assumption should also be invalid.

Nobody knows exactly what Shattenkirk will sign for.

He can only sign for 8 years if the team owns his rights.

Consensus is he will sign for better than $7m.

Lots of commentary coming forward that Leafs are trying to get a deal done.

I don't know anything beyond that. It is public information. Not sure what the purpose of your denial is....but it does seem to be a pattern for many Leaf fans.

Crazy!! Didn't you just waste you're time posting links about shattenkirk signing for 6mil? Are you ok?

and yet...

Word is Leafs are desperate to upgrade their defense. If they sign Shattenkirk at 8 years for $65m, some of you guys are going to look somewhat silly.
- spatso

You know it will cost more on an 8 year term and duplicate the same age profile for Phaneuf.
- spatso

If the Leafs sign Shattenkirk for 8 years and $65m. We will all wonder why they did not hang on to Phaneuf who is the better defensive/physical player. Leafs need defense, not more offensive presence.

We're not denying anything. There is no doubt the Leafs would kick the tires on Shattenkirk.

We're laughing at what an idiot you are, and insist on being.

please, go on.

Not as good as Phaneuf and longer remaining term.
- spatso

Is that why you guys tried to dump him in expansion draft and a hundred times since?

and yet...

Would be ideal if we could sign him
for a couple of seasons. I'd overpay for that... doubt he'd go for it though.

If nothing changes, nothing changes. Shattenkirk is nowhere near the horse that Phaneuf has been. Seriously, Shattenkirk is not a leader or even a dominate player. Leafs should avoid this option.

No all those links confirmed that he will not sign for $6m (St. Louis) and that the offers will need to be North of $7m.

I like the insinuation that Phaneuf is either of those things.


Shattenkirk is a far superior player to Phaneuf. They're in different tiers all together.


Phaneuf was a good player a number of years ago... which I guess is the last time the Sens got a scouting report on him(those things are expensive!). But he's declined massively, hence why a management group with some of the brightest minds and years of experience dumped him on one of the worst managed teams in the league.

I'm sorry to take you away from your sens summer speak, but somehow, I'm sure you'll find a way to not let facts bother you.

Scoreboard, Spasto, Scoreboard!

Sens continue to be losers, with 0 cups in their history!

Stop your loser talk!

This is very low grade summer sens speak.
- Feeling Glucky?

I see your struggling. Scoreboard certainly takes into account standings and playoffs.

A Super Bowl appearance is a Super Bowl appearance.

Not sure what part of that you don't get.

Did they at least sell it out?

Thank you for all those verbs and wonderful sentences. I sincerely do appreciate your putting some effort into your comments.

During the playoffs, it was said that Phaneuf was back to playing like his Calgary days. The Leafs never saw the best of Dion Phaneuf.

I don't disagree with the Leafs decision to move forward without Phaneuf. On the other hand, other than for Karlsson and Anderson no Sens player has a better playoff than Phaneuf. Loved all aspects of his game.

I can't imagine the Leafs would bother when they have the best Dman prospect in the world.

Yes.

And it means nothing if you don't walk away with a ring.



You do know the Stanley cup isn't handed out at the ECF, right?

Perhaps you need to take this up with those that offer up the rumour.
- spatso

Good lord.

Well superbowls are not usually played in the home city of either team, so there is a chance.

1 goal in 19 games.

Yup. Just like Calgary Phaneuf.

The Sens tried to dump him in the expansion draft and then offered him up to every other team at half price and nobody wanted him.

Very cold and wet at cottage.

Not nice for fishing.

Hard getting summer up to speed.

He will get better than 5 million for 5+ years.

Scoreboard says 0 cups for the Sens and 0 playoff victories over the Leafs, oh and a coveted 28th pick.
