tb4me Posted March 10, 2014 Report Share Posted March 10, 2014 Yea. Not from here. It seems that most people want him gone from the Leafs on dedicated Leafs message boards. Just got a little confused in my excitement I guess. lol Not me..I like Dion..Any guy that plays over 30 min a night is bound to have a few mistakes..It comes with 30 min games..Sure he has been a tad soft at times but I dont know of any perfect Defense men in the NHL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How about Dougherty, Seabrook, Keith, karllsen, Weber, etc should I go on?? Phanouck is so far down the list that he is stiing next to Komisarek!!

jbailey Posted March 10, 2014 Report Share Posted March 10, 2014 (edited) Phaneuf averages 24mins a game, there are about 20 other D that clock more minutes. Suter is the only one who basically clocks 30mins on average. Edited March 10, 2014 by jbailey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Acountdeleted Posted March 10, 2014 Report Share Posted March 10, 2014 (edited) If he clocks between 20-25 minutes a game he tends to have a pretty solid game. Of course he's not Doughty, Keith or Weber, but there are few of those. He's still probably top 30 defense in the league. The worst part is Toronto loves chewing up and spitting out defensemen. Remember Matheau Schnider? Same thing happened. Edited March 10, 2014 by jeremy84 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kickingfrog Posted March 10, 2014 Report Share Posted March 10, 2014 I'm not a big fan of Dion, and even less a fan of his contract, but he does log the most minutes (against the top forwards) on a team that doesn't play the most defensive focused game. His defensive partner for most of those minutes also contributes to the results. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillM Posted March 10, 2014 Report Share Posted March 10, 2014 That's an excellent point I always forget about. Phaneuf is a number 2 defenseman, Carl Gunnerson is not. His stats say otherwise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
