Speculation: Does Engvall deserve to be on the Leafs?

[teddygmr]

Not sure if he'd drop them, and I think that might be a concern of his (my speculation).
If he plays physical would opposition be dropping the gloves because he's a tall guy and therefore a justifiable target?
Needs some boxing lessons, Jim Dorey.

WOOHOO...major bonus points for the Jim Dorey reference and flashback!

IMO we need an upgrade on Holl and/or Lily. With Holl as our #3RHD and Lily and Dermott as our #7 and #8 D we are set. Worst case, I would take Chara over Schenn in for Lily.

Lilly is much better at hockey than those two.

Lilly is much better at hockey than those two.

He is and so is Sandin but Sandin was a deer in the headlights last year and Lily might be this year. What they might be in a couple of years is what we need now if the Leafs want to make a serious run. Other than Muzzin none of our D none of our are strong and big enough to battle with big, strong forwards. Chara is also a prick and won't make life comfortable for any forward wanting to stand around our crease area.

In 6 weeks we should know whether Dubas agrees with you or me.

I'd be okay with Chara or Schenn as a depth guy/spot starter but not full-time.
