<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>pharrow</b></div><div>Looks like your right. We have gone from Holl is a legit 2nd pairing Defenseman to this......




what is even funnier is the idea that they pylon of Chara would be an improvement for TOR. That says a lot. Considering Chara can't skate for anything anymore. He's so slow. All he can do is simply stand there and be big. Don't ask him to move, follow the puck, or actually do anything.

Doubt MTL is moving Anderson. You can count on roughly 20-30 goals from him like clockwork when he's healthy. He might not be flashy but he'll park in front of the net and crash it and just be a pain in the ass. Which is why teams like guys like him. Especially in the playoffs.</div></div>

If you can count on 20-30 goals like clockwork from Anderson, why has he only scored more than 20 once and never 30 while being 27? Seems like you can expect him to be a 15 goal scorer like clockwork and get very little else consistently out of him. Couple that with his bad contract and he's a bad player to obtain.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Random2152</b></div><div>Eh, just the dumb ones. The really funny thing is that he is a fine depth D at a excellent cap hit that is overall + value despite hard usage.

He is a depth player and they all have expiry dates for fanbases. For the first 100+ games it is still the honey moon, the 'OMG our 7th rounder is providing exceptional value' part of it, but after awhile the mistakes (that all depth players make and if they didn't they wouldn't be depth players) stop being forgiven and the fanbase turns on them.

Someday people will realise the grass isn't greener on the other side, but until then we get AGM's like this.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Also OP, if Josh Anderson played in Toronto, more people would know that he is David Clarkson 2.0
The guy is legitimately terrible. The fact that he escapes the immense criticism he deserves is unbelievable.</div></div>

Well Holl is just the current whipping boy, few ever survive that in TO. He's a fine player, not spectacular but solid enough. He absolutely can be upgraded but this is just another fan who's been brainwashed by the Simmons school of pandering to trolls to get clicks. The Sun's coverage is garbage.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>mokumboi</b></div><div>This season, he's been around, just has been very hot and cold. And the mistakes he makes on cold nights are just plain silly, too. Losing the puck in his skates and **** like that. Last season, dude's back was killing him, so cut him a break on that. There's also been times when he seems to struggle with the concept that his game doesn;t need to change just because he got bumped to the 1st pairing.

But more to the point here, the Blues don't need forwards and they would not be able to replace Parayko right now, which is the main reason why they would also pass. Also, I'd imagine Army has faith that Colt will find himself in the new role.</div></div>

Making it even more clear the Leafs say now and the Blues say yes.
