Me? Because I came when he scored.

Dubnyk wasn't the only leaky one on that gooooal.

Mistakes he needs to learn from and fix.
- JohnFergusonJr

But will he?

yup I totally concur but 700K vs 1.250Mil. at this time of year is big on the cap.

Pittsburgh is still paying him to be in the minors. They can't bury his whole contract. They could retain some of it and still be saving space plus acquire an asset.

And if by the end of the season the Leafs have more points and a rested Andersen, it'll be worth it. They're carrying too many forwards as it is, they could always waive one of them like Timashov who is just there taking up space.

McBackup had a SV% of over .930...didn’t play 20 games. Babs rides his starters, and plays them in the first of a b2b.

What a curve ball to the other teams if he switched that up once in a while.

Casey DeSmith is right there waiting, just a matter of price.
- JohnFergusonJr

DeSmith punched a girl in the face. Nah

I would add Petan as well.

I suspect some of these players are here to gain game playing time for the upcoming player draft for the new Seatle team.

while being a little tipsy? .... wasn't that disproven......

Allegedly. 5 years ago. If he's not in jail and the NHL allows him to play, he can play.

Send him down too or trade him in the deal. The Leafs have to spend as much as possible right now to maximizes the LTIR benefits.

No he admitted to Assaulting a woman, pretty sure he took a deal to get out of jail time or something along those lines.

He’s not worth the time. He can play somewhere else, rather not bother with a back up goalie with his prior history.

Played 36 games last year with 15 wins, .916 SV%. He's an improvement at the position. His prior history is history.

Alright cool. Too bad they cant sign Voynov too.

All transgressions should result in the death penalty.

He was young and drunk. Not condoning what he did, but he may simply refuse to drink as much as he did and has worked to become a better citizen. Who knows?

No, just people who get in my way at the grocery store.

Can't happen. Just like Matthews will continue to break into cars with his pants down. Nobody changes and people are irredeemable. Welcome to 2019.

People who pass on the right in a merging lane to cut in front of all the cars that have been waiting patiently...them too - with a Rochambeau to start.

An asswipe almost took out my front end today doing exactly that. Just dove into the lane expecting everybody to just brake for them.

I drive my wife nuts complaining everyday about these Richards who think they are better than the rest of us. They'd never do it in a lineup in person, but think it's fine in a car.

You should read what Max thinks of Keefe.

- Woderwick

Sure he can change but what’s the point of even risking it for a back up goalie.

Yup.

And if you happen to drive a classic car that's expensive to fix and they hit you, it gets totaled and they don't give a flying (frank).

Death penalty to all of them.

- ClarksonDavid

What exactly is the risk? That he's going to walk around the GTA punching every woman in the face?

He made a mistake. He paid a price. Five years went by and he hasn't done it again. People these days with their (frank)ing moral crusades.

There is little to no risk and the point is to improve the team. There are players who literally KILLED PEOPLE who had careers in the NHL.
