Virtually all teams have their 5,6,7,8 Dmen....as fairly interchangeable. It's players that step up and play "beyond their contract", that really propel teams.
I don't really understand the hate on this site for the Leaf Dmen. Reilly, Muzzin and Brodie are good NHLers. Dermot and Holl are capabler NHLers. Finding the next couple...where it's Lehtonen Bogosian, Sandin, Liljegren, or Marincin to be capable over the season is the challenge. (most teams have the same challenge)
Ridding themselves of the Leafs two worse Dmen last season, Barrie and Ceci has to improve the team.
