I don't disagree but I don't think Ferg can get anyone to take him right now.fartburp said:
Every year there's that hope that he'll actually do something and every year we see the same player out there.
Does anyone know how long his contract is?

Every Leaf fan has asked this question.They should have unloaded him to the Flyers a few years back when Clarke was interested in him.Now he`s no use to anybody.He`s injury prone & is invisible on the ice.
That's forsure!BE-LEAF-ABLE said:It was.
And he's no where to be seen because yet again, he's injured. His injury opened up a spot for Jeff O'Neill though, and I don't want to see that spot replaced by Nik anytime soon... or at all.
I'm not sure if the Leafs could get anything in return, but I think that if they don't tend him a qualifying offer, he automatically becomes a UFA.shookem said:That's forsure!
I'm glad it's only a one-year deal, maybe'll he'll work out in trade somehow or else he's cap room next summer.
It's the same thing every year.Katyuha_p23 said:Are you guys serious? Antropov has been one of our best players after his injury and has played very well under Maurice. Correct me if I'm wrong, but he was only 2 goals away from being a 20 goal scorer. If you ask me, he should stay for next season, and prove what he is worth to this hockey club.
I realize that you have your doubts about Antropov and his work ethic throughout the entire season. However after his injury he has done many impressive things that he hasn’t done in the past seasons with the Leafs.BE-LEAF-ABLE said:It's the same thing every year.
Some of these posts were made months ago, while Antropov was still his usual inconsitent and injury-proned self, and as usual he only came on in the last part of the season and suddenly changes the minds of many, re-igniting hope in his development.
It happens every year.
Not me though. I don't know about everyone else now, but last year my decision was no, and this year, after seeing things go practically the same way (again), my answer remains no.
I don't want him back at all. I'm done with this same routine with Nik Antropov, and I know there are better players out there to fill the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th line roster spots.
Unfortunately, next year when (not if, but when) he's back with the Leafs again, it will be the same thing.
He'll make us wonder why he's back on this team or even in the NHL, and then suddenly he'll start coming up strong near the end of the season.
