As of today, leafs goaltending has taking a slight step back but hat could easily change. Mrazek is not better than andy right now....but hes cheaper. So it is what it is.
Can Campbell continue his incredible reg season run? I think he'll come back to earth but will be good. Just not over the top good like his numbers suggested for that 10 game stretch.
But i will say this say, it was time for Andy to go.

Id say the goalies are treading water, Freddy was bad last season.
its not going to be hard to be better than him, but have to assume Campbell comes back down.

so all evens out.

Not better than which Andersen? We saw a bunch of different ones last year. We might see a much better one (somewhere else) this year. I’m not sure our goaltending will be worse than what we had on aggregate last year.

Loved Freddy for 3.5 years. But after a year and a half of Freddy's .900% it was time to go. Relative to those numbers Mrazek is bound to be an improvement.

If I were to guess what we think next summer I'd bet we'll be marginally happy with Mrazek (ie. he'll be middle of the pack) and, if he stays healthy, probably about the same for Campbell. He's bound to come back down to earth after those regular season numbers he put up.

Middle of the pack 'tending should get the Leafs far if they can score in the playoffs.

Is it costly for you to get those videos from the rink you play at?

I always thought it would be cool to see tapes of our games but they were asking for way too much for it when I asked 2 years ago.

Something I learned from playing in a few men's tourneys, years ago:

Never, ever, ever, ever buy the video of your game.

You have no idea how slow you look.

Yeah, like I know you watch your own team from the bench every game, but when it gets put on TV, it's franking humiliating.

I'd rather have Vasilevsky but whaddya gunna do
- Zezel

We'd have to be like $18M over the cap to do that, and that's just not possible.

Bettman would see that it would be an embarrassment to the league, and shut it down, with severe penalties.







At least if the Leafs did it.

If they’re both good and Campbell wants $5, keep Mr. Z and send Jack on his way.

Fair but as a goalie there is a certain amount of satisfaction in showing the guys who (generally) chirp you the most because they "scored" how slow and crappy they are! Sure you scored once, watch the video, you missed the net like 10 times and where were you on the game winning goal from the other team???? Oh there you are floating at centre while we were defending 5 vs 4 you lazy Fak.

It only took a couple emailed versions of 'game video' for my team to quiet down and know we all own the blame on most losses. lol

They are also slightly terrified I will ensure to zoom in, and slow-mo and throw in a funny sound effect on anything they do on the ice that I can get a laugh from. I have taken some nice falls, added in the old 70's Looney Tunes 'slipped on a banana peel' sound effect & added in some nice text along the lines of things like "way to go twinkle toes".

Leafs up 2-0 over CBJ.

Steeves kid looks fast. Robertson playing like he wants on the big club.

Pretty good game so far.

If video editing to make Nick Cage look good surely it can help us look like pro's when we make our kids/grandkids watch our videos.

I’m actually surprised that anybody who saw what they really looked like compared to the image they carried around in their head ever played again. Do you it speed up at least?

That's awesome. This is the kind of poop us old guys clinging to our youth should be talking about.

How to have fun.

I've been begging my wife to let me build a half-pipe in my backyard. She hates the idea ....mostly b/c my backyard is 16' wide.

I would recommend having a three-foot shelf just off the landing area, which will make it easier for the paramedics to load you onto the gurney.

My wife played on a beer league team (cosmo league team?) and they were truly terrible. But nobody had more fun at tournaments. These women were frightening.

The partner of the captain would film the tournaments, and then he would edit it into these hilarious videos. Every year was a different theme. He was soooo damn creative.

My wife and I would watch them and piss ourselves, while our kids would just walk by, shake their heads and quietly mouth "wtf?"

My kid (about to turn 28) says he hates playing goalie with and against really bad players. He didn’t play high level competitive hockey as a kid but started playing with better players and got to play with some really good players at school the last few years. He said going back and playing with buddies and their dads who were “good in the day” just made him crazy and that he’ll quit playing goalie and play out if he hips don’t let him play at a decent level.

Definately not - if anything I make comments in the email about nobody needing to check their computer to make sure the video isn't buffering, they are really just THAT SLOW in real life.

It’s really time to move on and think about the new and innovative ways the Leafs will find to (frank) up this year.
