I love your enthusiasm, but just think we might be getting ahead of ourselves here. Trust in the slow and steady Shanaplan.

I like the offsetting blogs. Both ends of the spectrum.

I think this is the season where the Shanaplan begins to blossom

Will the Leafs have to record break a Frederick Andersen again?

Will Mike have to repeat Grade 11 English again?

You just jinxed it 😡

Go Leafs Go

Will Mike have to Grade 11 English again?

It's yuge.

Andersen, who is the best goalie in the history of the game, by the way, will continue to dominate the league, unlike Sieve Roberto.

Bigly.

Will Mike have to finish Grade 11 English?

I think I speak on behalf of all Hockeybuzzers when I say that I don't really know how I feel about the events that transpired in Charlottesville this weekend, and that we could all benefit from hearing James Tanner's thoughts.

Sad state of affairs..

I dont think this really has anything to do with the Shannaplan, Andersen isnt exactly a young player and beating 37 wins is only 5 more than he had last year. If the leafs want to be develop and grow from last year, 38+ wins from a healthy Andersen is a reasonable goal. If they could do anything in the shootout, that alone could do it.

I doubt you speak for anybody if you don't know how that made you feel.....

Enjoyed reading as usual, and I agree that Andersen could well have a record breaking season, but we should temper our expectations a little. In Fantasy rankings - which you are more of an expert than I, Andersen was 18th in the NHL - could he be better wth a better defensive group in front of him? Certainly, but the Leafs haven't done a great deal to address that one yet. For me, he is far superior to recent goalie experiments like Toskala, Raycroft, Reimer and Bernier, but for now we'll have to see if he can win the Leafs a few games this season. Here are the top 25 goalie rankings for 2017-18 by NHL.com. Can't say I totally agree - but Andersen at #18 isn't far from where he belongs based on performance.
