Technically they did score on the zamboni driver, twice in fact.
- Steven_Seagull

That was incredible to watch from the other side though. I don't think I've ever seen a team play with that kind of desperation before.

Don’t go all Joe McCarthy on us
- Canada Cup

So let’s make a trade that give us less defense.

- .HOHO.

Unless you think Dermott can play RHD, he's behind Rielly, Muzzin, and Sandin on the left side.

But yeah, this trade does not address bringing in a solid, Top 4 d-man.

Love Nylander but I'm going to keep driving that train until opening day 20-21.

In the wake of the Toronto Maple Leafs early exit for the fourth year in a row

Wouldn't the Leaf's have to make the playoffs to be able to exit it early? Not like you can exit a store you never went in.

Frederik Andersen - playoff
series deciding games:

Year - SA - SV - SV%

2014 - 12 - 08 - .667
2015 - 27 - 25 - .926
2015 - 19 - 17 - .895
2015 - 26 - 21 - .808
2016 - 20 - 18 - .900
2017 - 36 - 34 - .944
2018 - 35 - 29 - .829
2019 - 30 - 27 - .900
2020 - 21 - 19 - .905

Total - 226 - 198 - .876

That is not a $7 million goalie, nor is it a $5 million one.

Did they? Why do I remember they barely got a shot against???? Well they should've scored at least two more for the W then.

(I'm drunk half the time so there's that)
- underhill14

They got 10 shots on net in 29 minutes vs a zamboni driver, including a powerplay.

- BINGO!

Remember that time they scored 5 goals in the 3rd vs the Canes to win 8-6? Those were good times.

Andersen >> Mrazek
- Not_Yan

Pesce > Kapanen
- Steven_Seagull

So if my math checks out, the Leafs still lose this trade.

Holl at 2m is a key player locked up?

But you're ready to move on?

Feels like cutting off the nose to spite the face.

Just an outside perspective
- jcragcrumple

Despite what Roger likes to think, Andersen ain't the problem.

No I don't remember it at all.

Do you remember the last time the Leafs won a cup?

Colorado is starting to get into a groove. This series is over.

MacKinnon is incredible.

- Nighthawk

(frank) no. I'd trade him yesterday. Re-sign Dermott with his CAP space.

Lets be serious, every fan of every team knows when the Leafs last won. It's a key dig.

MacKinnon is incredible.
- GreatGigInTheSky

Naz being Naz.

So happy our genius GM traded him.

Kadri is 5x better than Nylander will ever be, and on a far better contract. Such a boneheaded move.

Oh well, Kyle is pissed now, and if you look at what he’s saying, he’ll be shopping Nylander.

when Kadri was here wasnt he counted on to be one of the guys...
in colorado he gets the lesser matchup behind the mackinnon line..

Freddie had a SO.
Leafs SO once.
3.5mins away from out in 4

Somehow he is singled out as in previous exits other players were.


Yes mention of the D & they get the gears too. Nothing money can’t fix.

Goalies are voodoo.

Look at what's happening this year with Merzlikins and Korpisalo, but also compare Binnington this year vs. last year.

You need a tandem and you can't have a Price contract on one of them.

I say we walk from Andersen next year.

I’m pretty sure that i’m in add/adhd/agoraphobia spectrum somewhere 🤦‍♂️

i thank the Good Lord every day that my father found great outlets for my conditions like banning me from the house 8 hrs a day and conscripting me into forced labor when i came of age 🙏🏿

1.fire dubass and hire a gm who knows how to build a TEAM. (maybe back up the brinks truck for sweet Lou or maybe Rutherford will be available). although I’m sure that ship has sailed 🤦🏿‍♂️

2. trade greedy b!tch for a full grown dman like Jones or pietroangelo although I’m sure that ship has sailed 🤦‍♂️

3.trade greedy willi for a heavy playoff performer like poon jenner + although I’m sure that ship has sailed 🤦🏿‍♂️

4. fire queef and hire babcock or some other coach who knows how to build a TEAM 👍
Suter comes to mind 👍🏿

5. Get this sh!t done before glassthews bails for Glendale to win a cup with kessel🤦‍♂️

Astute 😂

This is great logic.

If we keep moving on from our good players because the bad players fu3k things up, we will never win a Cup again.

We finally get out of the dreaded revolving door of goalies and everyone wants to go back in?? We finally get back a solid back up to compliment Freddy and people want to fu2k that up??? You really want to trust Dubas & Co with goalie selection? See McIll vs Hutch/Sparks?!?!?!!?!?

Forwards, good at O bad at D, bad at working hard/hitting.
Defense, sucks at D, okay at O, bad at working hard/hitting.
Goalie, good to very good, steady.

Move on from the one solid spot. This is the same bullsh1t cycle we have been in for 53 years.

FIX .THE. D! Motherfu3king. Period.

Then if Freddy faulters, move him.

Jeebuz Toronto. WTF!
- underhill14

He isn't clutch enough. I take it back. Teams can't win with him, not in the playoffs.

Raps begin title defense with a big win.

stolen👍

- wingz4life

He could play on JT’s wing, take draws, kill penalties, improve the PP, be relied upon to shut down elite players, sub into C in case of injury etc..

Worst trade since I’ve been watching the Leafs. Avs fan adore him, as they should.

As good as Freddy was, the game winning goal in game 1 and the insurance goal in game 5 can't happen...

In the 4 playoffs, we haven't out-goalied anyone
- PatC80

Cool
Had this superpower offense scored some goals, those wouldnt have matter.

But.

He does let in goals questionable goals in big games
