A month ago I'd of told you this was crazy, but if Carlyle just isn't going to play him he has to go one way or another. Benched for the final 12 minutes of the game.
This is the thing that I am finding frustrating...he certainly doesn't seem to be put into a position to succeed.
But that's the point. The Leafs aren't using him, so there's no point in keeping him around.
I more or less agree there...he's an expensive 3rd line cetreman...but realistically, if you buy him out, you're going after a weak UFA market centre (which likely means overpaying) or putting a good deal of faith in Colbourne being good to go next year...
Granted there's the trade market, but I won't hold my breath...
