hockeyfan90 Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 we should trade lapierre for crosby or even malkin! Heck, why not for both! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mookie Wilson Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 You can't sign and trade a RFA, which is what Edler's situation looks like. Forget about the proposal, the trade doesn't go through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allkill326 Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 Franson has learned to play in a very defensive system. So, Edler didn't learn to play in a very defensive system? -Tries not to snicker- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pears Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 By playing in a defensive system he has learned or at least experienced defensive system play and could show more understanding of what it takes. Not saying Edler hasn't. But trading for/signing players that have played in similar systems would definitely help both the player and the team to adjust to the new addition simply because of previous experience of doing so, this would be especially advantageous for a trade being made mid season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
How the west was won Posted February 18, 2013 Author Share Posted February 18, 2013 You're proposing we trade a top pair, 50-point defenseman with Norris potential for a D man that could barely crack the LEAFS top six last year.

Aladeen Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 There is a lot of talk of how the Canucks have a weak right side defence. Toronto has a supply of right siders. Komisarek, Phaneuf, Kostka, Holzer and Franson are all right side players. Straight up, Edler for Franson. Franson would be good for canucks as he played for Nashville and has learned to play in a very defensive system. His success with the leafs also show that he is able to play a solid game with hardly a defensive system in place. He plays a physical game and is used on the third pairing but is quarter backing the first power play unit. He's also a BC boy With the emergence of the Ballard Tanev line taking a risk on a player like this is feasible. Lines Hamhuis - Bieksa Garrison - Franson Ballard - Tanev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
