In other exciting news I was just selected by Amazon to win some free Le Crueset cookware!
Can’t believe my good luck!

 

[JoeSakic13]

I’ve heard good things about their Zamboni driver

 

[hotcabbagesoup]

Wow

 

[RangersFan1994]

Just announce he cleared cause he will

 

[hockeykicker]

Sounds like they know he won't be claimed so give him some days off and then he stays with leafs

Haha, I got this too. I actually believed it for a moment until I realized I wasn't logged into an Amazon account and it wasn't actually Amazon.com

The entire Leafs team looks sick of Samsonov at the moment - their body language has to hurt more than the media and fans.

 

[Breakers]

22 goals against in his last 4 games

pretty much expected

he needs to go practice his foundations and build himself back up

 

[Rob Brown]

Hilarious to see how bad Samsonov has been this year for the Leafs after all of the shit Leafs fans threw at Dubas for signing Jarry last off-season.

Ah yes, because Dubas and the Pens are in a very envious position.

You can waive a goalie and not send him down.

Carolina literally just did this with Raanta.

Raanta played 2 games in the AHL before being recalled.

 

[34]

YES!!!! FINALLY.


Here is where Toronto turns their season around. They are way better team than the standing show because of the worst goaltending they have been getting in the NHL.

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

Raanta played 2 games in the AHL before being recalled.

My bad you're correct.

Now I can't remember which team it was that waived a player and didn't send them down recently.

 

[Teemu]

Time to reacquire Mrazek!

 

[Maurice of Orange]

Samsonov is sporting a dreadful .862 save percentage.

Guess this means more Martin Jones.

 

[featherhawk]

wonder which GM desperate for a goalie will be convinced that all Sammy needs is a change of scenery...HAHA

 

[34]

This could also mean that Woll is close to returning.

No GM is claiming him. No chance.

 

[Maurice of Orange]

My bad you're correct.

Now I can't remember which team it was that waived a player and didn't send them down recently.

Could have been Pittsburgh as Hinostroza was waived but wasn’t immediately sent down.

On certain occasions GM’s waive players but don’t send them down after clearing waivers.

 

[CgyFlamesftw]

Trade for Markstrom or Vladar cmon leafs.

 

[DingDongCharlie]

Hey Treliving, trade him for Soupie

 

[Leafidelity]

Ready to see what Hildeby can do, the bar is set pretty low

 

[Winston Wolf]

Sounds like they know he won't be claimed so give him some days off and then he stays with leafs

Sounds like career ending hip surgery.

 

[KingsHockey24]

LAK could fix him.

 

[34]

I’ve heard good things about their Zamboni driver

In all seriousness, that Zamboni driver is an upgrade to Samsonov.

 

[AhosDatsyukian]

You can waive a goalie and not send him down.

Carolina literally just did this with Raanta.

Canes did send Raanta down, he played a few AHL games then got called back up.

 

[RI.B FAN]

Never saw this coming

 

[Raging Bull]

LAK could fix him.

With a little rehabilitation he could work himself back up to being just mediocre.
