[Signing] Paul Ranger signs with the Leafs

[Fast Tony DeNiro]

Seriously Ranger has the potential to be the Leafs best defenseman. I don't think people remember how good he was in Tampa.

With the additional information about Ranger's preferences and circumstances I must, reluctantly, withdraw the criticism of Nonis for the NTC.

It's crazy to think that if information like this doesn't get leaked, our stance on a GM's work is blessed with ignorance.

I'm not jumping on you here since we all, as fans, love to play armchair GM's but don't have a clue of what is actually happening behind the scenes.

It's fun to speculate on who 'won' the trade, or if it was a 'good' signing but to be honest we don't have a clue of what is really going on!

Funny to think about.
