Ya, I haven't seen much. Watched him a bit last game or 2 ....not as bad as the begin of the year. Hopefully he improves every game....young and big so let's hope.

I think, he's been better lately but still not that impressed. I guess if you're a 6-7 guy and you're not outright hurting the team that's all you can ask.

Put Brenie in net for now. Toskola as backup.

I don't think Grabo was a bad contract. He was awesome.

OK. That logic doesn't mak much sense. The value of Anderson isn't dictated by what is on the other team's roster. Those 2 guys, along with gardiner and Reilly are worth much more than Anderson.

The goalie market isn't strong.

I'd be weary from a Leafs stance to trade for a goalie playing in California especially a backup one.

Does coaches count? 2x signed a coach long term ext and then fired him weeks later.

True enough but irony aside, if the price is right it would be worth taking a shot on Anderson but not for JVR and not for the price they paid for the other 2 goalies they acquired from California teams

Toronto worst trade ever:

Toronto trades a 1st Round Pick in 1991 (Scott Niedermayer) to the New Jersey Devils for Tom Kurvers (October 16th, 1989)

Unfortunately theres no besides kadri or jvr thats worth trading for on your team . You already traded kessel . Bernier is a back up goalie . Phanuffe is old and overpaid . Bokac is a third line center . And freddie anderson was our starting goalie in last years playoffs .
- Eman87654

30 is old? You just traded for 34yr old Beiska... You wouldn't trade for Reilly? or Nylander? If your team traded for Holzer, then they would trade for pretty well anyone off the Leafs roster

Leafs fans need to relax on this one.

Our scouting was so bad, we wouldn't have taken Niedermayer.

We would have taken Alex Stojanov.

No, seriously. He played for Hamilton, so the Leafs would have seen him play. Niedermayer played for Kamloops.

he's a backup because Gibson is an absolute gem.

freddie is HUGE, I think he should be one of the guys they look hard at.

Hal Gill was fine. Toronto fans went stoopid because he made over $2 million dollars and had no offence. Well, duh.

Kubina was good. Not sure why Toronto fans soured on him.

Agree on Belfour - he'll bump Bernier off.
