Question to Leaf fans (or everyone)...?

[The BBKL Insider]

Rumor is Bolland wants to sign a 'life contract in Toronto' and finish his career here.

Your thoughts, if you had the choice of Bolland at 4.25 x 8 years OR letting him walk, what would u pick?

personally i hope we let him walk.

[Arian The Insider]

I would take him for one year only. He played great for us but he's made of glass and would only play like half of those games in 8 years. We already have to worry about lupul's candy cane bones anyways

[The BBKL Insider]

Lupul is gonna be traded this summer, i dislike him

[brockbirds]

I'm assuming a "life contract" comes with a no-movement clause on top of the 8->whatever years? No thanks, go find some other unfortunate team in a big city to prey on (hey, Islanders!).

[KapG]

Let him walk

[LeanMachine]

make sure to keep an IR spot open for life also

[Robin Hood]

I don't think this is a difficult choice at all. I want Bolland gone even if he wants 2 years.

[Nick]

8 years would be cool, at 2.5M

[Tony]

less money per year and absolutely no NTCs or NMCs

[Shep]

8 years, stab me in the face.

[The BBKL Insider]

sort of agree with shep, even 8 years at 2.5 is too much for me

let the fucker walk.

[KapG]

8 years, stab me in the face.

repeatedly

[Tony]

I thought the new CBA allows up to 7, no? Still too long ...

[KapG]

8 if they currently play for you, no? i thought there was a rule about being able to sign a player to an 8 year.

[Florida Chris]

5 yrs at 4 mil is all I would go. Any more $$$$ or term and he could walk

[KapG]

5 yrs at 4 mil is all I would go. Any more $$$$ or term and he could walk

think about the injury history though. do you really want to give a guy that much term when he has big issues staying healthy?

big red flag for me personally.

i do like the fact that he WANTS to play here. still not a game breaker for me

[kimmer]

Just sign him for maximum value and terms. Leafs need winning centremen
