No surprises here.

 

[Gallagbi]

Makes sense

why now??? a day too late.

 

[BrannigansLaw]

Crazy how far off a cliff he fell.

He was solid last year and great in that Tampa series. Somehow he just imploded

 

[TMLegend]

Eric Comrie is on waivers too. Bet we claim him.

why now??? a day too late.

They kept him for the b2b in case anything happened to Jones last night.

Because... you don't like him sitting on the bench and watching the game?

Hopefully, he can find his game again, but I'd be fine if he doesn't see the NHL again this year.

Hoping this means Hildeby is getting a look.

Hope not... he has a similar save percentage... .862 vs .863

 

[LeafParade]

Hildeby is being called up I assume because the Marlies recalled Cavallin from the ECHL.

He does. But in this case it's better the devil you don't know rather than the devil you do.

Late Christmas gift to the fan base.. a bit too late if you ask me. who’s replacing him till woll comes back?

Any more moves to be expected? Keefe? Shanny? Anyone?

 

[Wrong Wilson]

So are we calling up Hildeby or is there a trade/signing/PTO/waiver pick-up coming?

 

[notbias]

He does. But in this case it's better the devil you don't know rather than the devil you do.

I'd just rather give an unknown that we have a shot instead of picking up someone else's trash.

Yeah no thanks to Comrie. Just as awful without the mental health aspect as Samsonov.

Give Hildeby a look. Reward his strong play in the AHL.

Comrie on waivers. I assume we try and claim him. If we get him they leave Hildebeast down in the AHL. If not Hilde is going to California

 

[GoonieFace]

Eric Comrie on waivers as well……

 

[notbias]

Eric Comrie on waivers as well……

1.8 per year

.863 save %

Hoping they stay away.

 

[Fogelhund]

Expected move.

 

[Aashir Mallik]

I feel kind of bad, but at the same time he’s costed us at least 5 points in the standings almost single-handedly

We need woll to come back and continue to be excellent

 

[leafsfan5]

That was expected

I really feel for Samsonov the person, though. By all accounts he’s a nice guy and this has clearly been impacting him mentally. Hopefully this can serve as a reset for him and allow him to comeback stronger

Nonetheless, this is the NHL and we need points. Hopefully Hidelby is up to the challenge

 

[al secord]

Too early for an appreciation thread?

He strikes me as the type that is willing to put in the work to try to get back to form.

I also think he is well aware he has been bad.

Sure this is not shocking, and I wouldn't be surprised if he is fine with this.

Man is making more then 3 million$

I’m over it

 

[as Pure as Evil]

I just hope he can get the things he needs to deal with dealt with.

I hope he clears

We know what he's capable of he just needs to sort out what needs to be sorted and gets the help needed.

 

[Schenn]

Sad but expected.
