He is a more of a cerebral player that should be given a chance on the first or second line with Horvat or Pettersson. If he is given the chance but fails in that role he should be banished to the press box or Utica. He was given that chance and failed time to go to Utica 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need 4th liners that play like 4th liners, not someone gifted ice time because of a huge contract. Without Ferland and Motte those missing hits are more noticeable.We need balance on our team, the right mix of physicality and skill. So LE is not a 4th liner. He's only there because of injuries (he had been out of the lineup prior). Still doesn't single him out for the team slumping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't be shocked if he ended up signing with the Leafs but I don't really see it happening. The reason is that if he signed with the Leafs people would recognize him. He is basically a regular dude in Toronto making 4.5 million dollars per year. Pretty sure he is easily recognized here as well 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, I do not think Baer has shown that well. His speed is ok but he is mishandling passes and his shot is off. Sutter is probably out and Louie could go back to the press box (imo). The more this year's team looks like last year's, the less I like it. Baer is average at best. Smurf. Last years man. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
