Who is the worst backup the leafs have had in recent years?

I’ve never seen so much attention paid to a position that only plays 20-25 games a year. Things must too good in Leaf land.

Your backup goalie plays as many total minutes as a team's 2nd pairing D and 3rd liners. Only in fantasy land does someone think a player who plays the entire game for 25% of the games is irrelevant.

Try and tell any scout or goalie coach Sparks is better than Hutchinson. When they stop laughing, hopefully you’ve got more than a single stat that’s influenced by team play to support this.


Sparks has never been an NHL goalie and anyone who knows about this thing was saying it before, during, and after they waived Curtis McElhinney.


Sparks, by a landslide.

Didn’t he have a shut out on his first NHL appearence?

Hard to blame the backups under Babcock. They've been tasked with a very big ask. To defend a team that is tired, on a second of a back-to-back (x14). You won't take part in any of the team's remaining games.

I'd probably go with a backup before Babcock was here. I'm gonna go with Glenn Healy.

He's a clown. But was always a dependable backup.
