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. |

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. |

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. |

Lucas Neilson: Frederik Andersen poised for a record breaking season
A Healthy and confident #31 - Lucas.Neilson
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.
1. Carey Price, MTL
2. Matt Murray, PIT
3. Braden Holtby, WSH
4. Sergei Bobrovsky, CBJ
5. Jake Allen, STL
6. Cam Talbot, EDM
7. Pekka Rinne, NSH
8. John Gibson, ANA
9. Devan Dubnyk, MIN
10. Martin Jones, SJS
11. Tuukka Rask, BOS
12. Jonathan Quick, LAK
13. Ben Bishop, DAL
14. Corey Crawford, CHI
15. Henrik Lundqvist, NYR
16. Brian Elliott, PHI
17. Andrei Vasilevskiy, TBL
18. Frederik Andersen, TOR
19. Mike Smith, CGY
20. Cory Schneider, NJD
21. Craig Anderson, OTT
22. Jaroslav Halak, NYI
23. Scott Darling, CAR
24. Marc-Andre Fleury, VGK
25. Robin Lehner, BUF
