what he said had nothing to do with the Canucks.

I said Phaneuf is overpaid... They responded with Edler is overpaid.

I said Leafs have two good back up goalies.. They respond Luongo blah blah blah.

when in god's name has Jonathan Bernier ever carried to a team?

James Reimer with a 2.88 GAA in the playoffs? sorry, that isnt going to impress anyone.

Toronto's goalies have had the luck of playing under a defensive minded coach for the past couple of seasons... MAF hasnt. Shockingly enough, MAF's best seasons in the playoffs came in the 2 years he played under a defensive minded coaching style.

amazing.

Have you ever watched a Leafs game? Leafs have had one of the worst defenses in the league the last 5-10 years. The goalies have been our saviors.

Better u say nothing. This goes back to Cujo and Belfour. Goalies have been covering up for the teams lack of defense for as far back as I can remember

Since 1992, I think there was a 2-3 year span where the Leafs goaltending was weak.

Trooolll. Yes you know what to do. don't show up for games so management panics and sells all the prospects for washed up players. Perfect idea.

That doesn't make any sense at all. Thank you for making my point.

Yet somehow an older Tomas Vokoun miraculously found a way to play above league average in front of the same team.

teams play different in front of back up goalies

never said Toronto was a good team at what they did, but having a coach who preaches defense is something MAF hasnt seen since 2009 .

My comment was pretty easy to understand. Not sure what you're confused about.

Pretty much, the one time we had a defensive coach he turned 6 no namers into one of the best defensive cores in the league and they went to back to back western conference finals.

Yes it does are you that oblivious? It's what the leafs did from 2003-2010 roughly. The management is pressured to win now so they trade prospects for washed up players so we could just make the playoffs. If leafs fans would relax they wouldn't feel pressured to do that poop.

Good luck with relaxing Toronto. The new guys up top seem to have identified the issues, hopefully it works out soon.

If I'm picking between Reimer/Bernier and MAF/Griess... i'll pay the extra 700k and take MAF/Griess.

MAF has proven he can do it but has unfortunately been shot down as the result of poor coaching... neither Reimer or Bernier have proven that they can do it and lead a team in the playoffs. might they be able to? sure. but give me that guy who has already done it.

- SuperHenderson13

This comment is dumb... MAF only has a Stanley cup because they had Crosby Malkin letang playing at the best of their career..Fleury will never win a vezna.. I believe that Bernier has a chance to one day.

see... that dumb attitude is why the leafs are where they are. look at the pens... their ownership bailed in the early 2000's and the fans cared enough to stop showing up to the games... and now we have a competitive ownership that pays to play.

Thing is, most people don't realise the Canucks are over paying for Miller. Which is something you should be thankful for and letting it fly under the radar instead of being a Lack about it. Then again, you did soak up the Luongo and Schneider for 600 FIRSTS, 800 TOP 3 PLAYERS, 900 TOP 2 DMEN like a tampon...so being you is all you know.

what proud loyal fans you guys are. Bail on your team when they play bad like the little bandwagoners you are. I feel bad for the true pens fans who stuck with the team good and bad who get called bandwagoners. The most bandwagon team in the league the Pittsburgh penguins.
