An undead Cowen is an upgrade on Hunwick Polak

As soon as he starts breathing through his nose (never).

I'm surprised the Leafs didn't just say (frank) it after the appeal and just put him in

Really suck..

The spectacular save on Hedman left all alone at the side of the net followed seconds later by the Hedman goal, all alone at the front of the net was a good example of this. Forwards were to blame as much as the D here though.

At the same time, even when he makes saves, he's looking less than comfortable.

Wouldn't you though? He's making miracle saves but letting in what seems to be "softies" because of bad defensive play.

His style is suppose to be letting the puck hit him, but right now he's flopping skating in circles in his crease trying to do way too much.

Not sure what Babcock can do to make him feel more comfortable right now though. If he lets Enroth play and they actually when a game, it'll kill him even more.

Edit: Guy needs to go get hypnotized and make him forget all the games he played!

I'm not that surprised everyone just calm down

most goalies this year have been really bad (or injured).

that being said, I always wanted Vasilevskiy

are you at home right now?

I still think even with Price in net, we would have lost. Maybe not as bad cause he's on another level.. but that's how bad half our Ds are unfortunately. Not even a super-goalie could save us right now.

Yeah - I wish they drafted Nick Ritchie too

Yeah he needs an upgrade

The world is my home










so no

market pressure certainly will make a difference this early in to his time here. Just look at Babcock's reaction to media pestering

to live and work with relative anonymity for most of your career, and then suddenly be thrown into a pressure cooker where every mistake is scrutinized on the front of every media outlet... that's a big change

Are you taliking about Andersen or Babcock? Both?

Pass.

Leafs need a little bit more of Radek Faksa.
and less of Leipsic, Lindberg etc. etc.

Remember cujo era leafs? Like 3-4 breakaways against a game and they'd still win. Cujo wasn't even vezina quality either. Boy how I'd kill to have average to above average goaltending. Hopefully Andersen gets into a groove as the season goes on. If not.. woooo lottery!

Yeah - I wish they drafted Nick Ritchie too

Edmonton may have just figured it out after six or seven years of being a young, unorganized team.

Double post.

how about them Jays?

Can goalies change the materials their gear is made of so the rebounds bounce off less or more?
