Sujet: Thornton and Hainsey Adding Experience
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Leafs_and_Sens_Fan</b></div><div>Hainsey is to add depth in case on injury during cup run. He is better than Marincin.</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>JaredOfLondon</b></div><div>No, he isnt. Marincin isnt very good, but Hainsey is slower, older, more expensive even with the retention.</div></div>

I don't really understand why Hainsey is so lowly regarded. Sure he is not the player he used to be but gees. He plays 20 minutes a night for Ottawa (4th on the team in ice time), He is 3rd on the team in+- at +4 on a team that is -41. He kills penalties. He is still a solid bottom 3 D.

Do I want him back in Toronto at this point - no. I Like giving the Kids (Sandin and Liljegren) a chance to show what they got and improve with the experience.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>RobbStark03</b></div><div>I guess the issue here is that it doesn't show what the Leafs could do with that cap space. They need help on RD and Ceci is awful. If they need to clear 4.5M in cap, it seems like a pretty cheap price (moving down two draft rounds in essence). I have tried to propose trade ideas involving Weber or Petry to help the Leafs out, but their fans continue to say they have no interest in either player. So maybe clearing up cap space and letting them trade for someone else is more likely. That's my thoughts at least.

Should be noted, I personally don't want Ceci, but he is a warm body and has a skillset that might help Montreal short term (Tank ;)).</div></div>

Ceci is not as bad as everyone portrays him to be. He is just overpaid. He is not 4.5 mil player. At 1.5-2 Mil he is an adequate 5-6 D. When Healthy Reilly/Barrie Muzzin/Holl and Dermott/Ceci is a good defense. Can it be better of course.

Sujet: Forwards Making more than Willy Nylander
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Jamiepo</b></div><div>No... his cap hit in year one was 6.96m and it stayed that way throughout. The exaggerated cap hit in year one stops a team from saving cap.

Games played x daily cap hit = 6.96m for every season in his contract.</div></div>

If he signed the deal before the season started - his cap hit would have been 7.5 million a year. (45 million contract / 6)

If he was not a RFA and signed the deal when he did his cap hit for years 2 to 6 would have been 7.5 million per year with 4.26 million cap hit in year 1 which is the adjusted amount for the prorated season making the actual contract in real dollars 41.76 million rather than the 45 million.

But since he was a RFA mid season signing his cap hit to the team in year 1 the prorated cap hit was as you say the 6.96 million (10.2 million prorated). The 6.96 is the 41.26 actual real dollar contract / 6 years.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>PleaseBanMeForMyOwnGood</b></div><div>His cap his is 6.9 million, splitting hairs doesn't help you at all. Plus he's pretty close to a point a game player now and is really rolling with Tavares. Good luck</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>KoneDome</b></div><div>So is his cap hit 6.9 or 7.5? (honest question). Even if it's 7.5 mil per year, I don't think that changes my argument very much.</div></div>


Cap hit is 6.9 this year but the actual average salary is 7.5. The difference is due to mid season signing that saw a 10mil cap hit the first season of the deal. Your right though it does not change your argument much. I am not arguing he is not worth it. Just pointing out that he is actually paid slightly more than a lot of the ones you have listed above.

Sujet: Leafs Opening Night Lineup
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>LoganOllivier</b></div><div>While I only watch a period of Spezza, Gauthier and Shore both seemed more involved than he did when I have watched them. For a 4th line 3 hard workers who are good defensively and can kill penalties is everything. I think Spezza may be asking for a trade or will get waived soon.</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Random2152</b></div><div>You missed a lot then. Spezza looked good so far. Shore hasn't done anything to deserve to beat Spezza out, and sitting him in the opener after taking a min deal to play here (when someone would have pad more) against his old team is the most Babs move I can think of.</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Jamiepo</b></div><div>Don’t think anyone agrees with it but that is what Babs is doing.</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>palhal</b></div><div>Can't answer your question. I'm sure Babs wants a Spezza in the lineup so he can have a right handed player for face offs in the right side defensive zone. With offensive teams able to pick the face off dot more often...faceoffs might be more important this season.</div></div>


When I first heard that Shore was going to start instead of Spezza the first thing that popped into my mind is that he may part of a trade and the other team wanted to see how Shore does in a game. Just a thought.
