Exactly. For all the talks of him being inconsistent, he's actually quite a consistent league average goalie .. He can go on stretches of high level play but then has month-long slumps. That's been his norm in his tenure as a Leaf. Just so happens this slump he was on was longer than his previous ones.
Let's hope he keeps rolling. Having him go on a run at this time of the year is critical if the Leafs are going to have any postseason success.
The goalie that has any long stretch of consistency and then drops off a edge has been happening even with the very best for so so long. I’m not the goalie type for sports i played, soccer or hockey, never wanted to catch playing baseball. I always wanted to be involved moving go go type.
I don’t have the slightest clue what makes a good goalie tick. They are on a island when things go bad. Its all on them. Sometimes its true. Sometimes not but always falls back on them because it shows in their actual record. Players don’t have a win/loss record beside their stats. Save % tells the goalie story even if its a win with a poor save %. Freddy is a solid 91.7% or 91.8% since coming. Thats good. He wins, sometimes loses focus and looks bad. Focus is a good goalie i suppose but technically freddy is elite, he’s efficient, calm ,cool. Most of all he never glares at his defense and is classy. I think he’s great.good guy.
I know he will be signed beyond this contract. They’d be nuts not to sign him
