Cody Franson played well for the Toronto Maple Leafs – and his trade return played out well, too – but with a minimal role in Nashville not exploding his market value as he hoped, is there a chance he comes back to Toronto?
Elliotte Friedman posed the question in his latest ’30 Thoughts’ post for Sportsnet.
It’s an interesting thought, and one that’s been around since he was dealt. The problem with Franson was his dollar request – not his play – when he was dealt.
He’s a valuable second pairing defender on a lot of NHL teams.
