Kinda torn on Franson. I liked him in Nashville, but I think he's been underwhelming in Toronto. Also is looking to get a big pay raise I think and has rejected the Leafs offers to retain him. BUT, he does have many of the attributes this defense group needs to be more complete: size, RH shot, offensive abilities. I worry about his defensive abilities, but if Hartley can get Wideman to be halfway decent then I think he can get something out of Franson.
Anyone else intrigued enough in Franson to part with a 2nd round pick?
