Confirmed with Link: TOR sign G Petr Mrazek to 3 year deal, 3.8M AAV

[zeke]

Rantta has a much better career save% and he hasn’t had the benefit of playing behind one of the leagues best defences the last few years.
He also signed cheaper and for less term.

Arizona goalies all have super high save% for some reason.

 

[darrylsittler27]

Tampa Bay, Boston, but you can also add Florida and apparently now Montreal...

The Leafs might be in tough not just for their next first round matchup, but also the playoffs themselves...

Based on today, they are in tough.

 

[binop7]

Try not to tear him apart when he lets in soft goals.

I foresee a lot of beach balls flying in

 

[binop7]

This does mean that if Campbell outperforms mrazek we will have to give him somewhere in the 4+ range

We won't be able to afford that.

 

[613Leafer]

Think I would've preferred Bernier if I were going with an undersized goalie.

He was run out of town and crapped on by the media/fans. I doubt he had any interest in coming here.

 

[makbeer]

We now have two 90s style reflex goalies who are both around 6'1" which used to be on the bigger side during that era.

Apparently the Leafs are allergic to big, technically sound goalies.

 

[makbeer]

I fail to see how Price is better than either Mrazek or Campbell at this point, but.....? Like Campbell outdueled him and Tampa embarrassed him. Not to mention he's been straight up awful in the last 3 regular seasons.

Also Ned being the same? Come on. Since his draft year (2014 - 7 seasons ago) the guy has had two seasons above a .907 sv% in the league he played the most in. 2018-19 he had a .916 in 51 games in the AHL, and in 20-21 he had a .932 in 23 games in the NHL. Much more likely he's a flash in the pan than as good as either Mrazek or Campbell.

Lol ok.

He's 6'1. Thats the same size as Lundqvist, Quick, Grubauer.

Not really.. Andersen’s a technical goalie with size.

 

[Morgs]

Lol ok.

True let's ignore massive sample sizes for nice stretches to end the season. Genius

 

[jiggy35]

I’ll take Mrazek at ~3.5 over Ullmark, Andersen, even Grubauer at their cap hits or trash trendies for cheap. Better fancy stats than all of them and used to the tandem situation.

It’s still Campbell’s net but now more pressure for him to perform and keep it. Pretty solid duo in my eyes.

 

[sparxx87]

Not really.. Andersen’s a technical goalie with size.

Lamoriello acquired him.

Dubas sent him packing for two inferior goalies. Both less talented, inferior anticipation and far less impressive physical specimens.

It was time to move on from Andersen

Mrazek and Campbell should be a solid duo

Based on how they’d moved the past two years, maybe… but it shouldn’t have been. They overplayed him out of necessity in previous years, then inexplicably kept played a goalie with a groin injury this year. It’s almost hard to believe a professional organization could make such a poor decision.

Neither Mrazek or Campbell are backstopping a cup winner.

Another step back by Dubas.

 

[zeke]

Lamoriello acquired him.

Dubas sent him packing for two inferior goalies. Both less talented, inferior anticipation and far less impressive physical specimens.

But both better goalies than him.

 

[sparxx87]

Not if you’re assessing skill and ability. Not even close.

 

[zeke]

Not if you’re assessing skill and ability. Not even close.

We're concerned with performance here.

 

[sparxx87]

We're concerned with performance here.

Me too.

Seeing Brendan Gallagher float one through Campbell’s legs to break the ice and put them behind in the 7th and deciding game was tough to watch. My daughter would have stopped it. There was 4-5, arguably 6 terrible goals over 7 playoff games for him. That sort of performance in high leverage situation is incredibly concerning.

Campbell played better these playoffs than Freddy ever has for us.

Yeah we’ve seen that game 7 softee before.
Not sure Campbell has the mental toughness to be counted on in the playoffs. Andersen didn’t either, hopefully the new guy does.

Really? 4-5, arguably 6 bad goals including a back breaker in game 7? Are you joking?

 

[zeke]

4-5 bad goals? You're just making things up now.

And back breaking game 7 softies is Fred's specialty.

Yeah, definitely a few Anderson would want back against the Bruins or Capitals, but I recall one or two in a series, never 5 like Campbell, and never a deflating one on the level of the Gallagher goal

Goals he should have saved? Yes. 4-5, arguably 6.

None of this will show up in your stats.

Legit just making shit up now LOL.
