Even though we won you guys still have the better team. We are virtually a one man team.

Wanna a second man...we got a back up goalie you can have.

Meh, that poop happens.

A mistake I’m tired of seeing is the one they have made exactly 7 times this season. Starting an AHL goalie.

That’s on Dubas.

- Santo_44


I mean, you're not wrong but, Dubas had his hands full this off-season having to sign guys on the cheap because Marner was set in stone on a $2M overpay.

He did bring in a goalie but Neuvirth decided to not hockey anymore. Unfortunately.

I expect Dubas to do some wheeling and dealing to give his buddy Keefe a fair chance to make the playoffs. That means a new backup is coming very soon!
- 21peter

It’s must.

8 game losing streak with a backup in.(id like to know what the record is going back to last season)

You’d think the backup has to take a lot of the blame? No? (frank) facts?

I just clued into why Matthews looked half asleep. Turkey hangover, American thanksgiving. Then again maybe he has Taco's. Now i'm confused....

Do you get the feeling Babcock is pissing himself laughing right now, after watching the Leafs lose a game to the stone-cold Sabres, with colossal defensive mistakes, lazy play and Matthews coughing up the puck in front of his own net?

Probably felt vindicated that Hutch continued to lose his team games.

Like- "See! He's not a gud pl'yr."

Both teams were dumpster fires on defence.

You were missing your best defenceman.

We were missing our best 140 lb. soft forward.

So put them back in the lineup and my guess is you win by 3.

Yeah I don’t blame him for what they started with. Neuvirth or Hutch could of worked...it wasn’t worth trading value for.

But now....after the game in Pittsburgh it’s on him completely. Time to fix something that is really killing them.

No excuse, he's not the only person in the office. He probably has the biggest office staff in the NHL, if not, he has a couple people that could help him out.

I'm not a Dubas fan, not his biggest hater but not a fan. He has really bad valuation skills when it comes to goalies. Really fu3king bad. IMO.

Weird stat I’d love to see (I’ll bet a website has it):

Project the records of all teams based upon winning records of only the starting goalie.

My guess is Leafs are top 5 in league.

4 wins out of 21 dating back to last season.

I wonder what gets you more wins...having Hyman on the ice or a reliable backup.

Ok time for Dubas to make the move and shake it up some. Backup goalie for sure there. I wouldn't even mind Miller at all at this point just someone who can come up with SOME wins.

Hutch, Timo and a 2nd in 2020

For Miller retained to 700K.

I don’t care just do it.

- Santo_44


We don't need goalies... JG and Stolarz are money...

and waiting in the wings.. is this Cat

Lukas Dostal, a 2018 third-round selection, is the lead goalie for Ilves in Liiga, Finland’s top league. Dostal has a 12-1-4 record, 1.90 goals-against average and .922 save percentage. His 12 wins are tied for the league lead.

We need finishers.... Miller and whatever it takes for Kap...
