Yep, let's sit the only guy who gets the puck on net from the blue line.

I know they won't sit Dion, despite the fact he misses the net 91% of
the time.
You must be watching a different game than I am. Franson hits shinpads in front of him or missed the net the majority of the time. Of course Dion misses more often than he does but I have yet to see Franson hit the net more that a couple times a game. Sit them both and bring up Holzer! Just because I want to see what he's got.

Palmy love your name and the mask. Definitely my favorite Leaf goalie of all time. But think I have to side with lama on this one. I think Franson does a better job at getting shots through reason being he doesn't try to put it through the boards. More often than not he usually takes a wrist or snap shot. With Dion on the other hand it's usually a missile with no GPS. You see any of our forwards screening the goalie on the PP. 2 reasons for that. One Wilson doesn't have a clue how to run a PP and second why would you with Phaneuf shooting the puck. He has no clue where it's going.

Uh, the PP was fine for a good long time this year, that Liles hasn't been contributing is more of an issue to me.
 
The more I think about it, the more the trade deadline excuse makes me want to throw up my lunch.  What kind of management would even suggest that?

Let's go boys, I don't care why we've lost 8 of 9, get a damn win and then lets head to the windy city.

Exactly man, this PP goes as Liles goes.  Has little to do with Wilson, we have seen the same PP breakout since he started.
 
Tight team c'mon. That's got nothing to do with it. For those of you who laughed about me wishing we could snag JVR for Schenn. It would take more than Schenn unfortunately the way he's played.
