Actually you said he was a decent fighter. Toskala was rather good on SJ, couple that with Toronto losing Kaberle and it went to the shitter for them. Yes they have addressed their problems, but it looks more like hole filling then problem solving, they will still have problems with defense. I see them doing better, even squaking into the playoffs this year (purely on the back of gustavsson) Beauchemin is a good addition I must say and it will be interesting to see how well he fits in.
Mara I am worried about, I know he is soft but he has size and if he uses it he will prove smoewhat useful. Gill is a monster who I think they have moreso for the intimidation factor then anything.
and to be truthful, I would much like Komi back for Mara and Gill.
