Why is everybody freaking out

I think you’ll be disappointed if you think Mrazek is an improvement

I feel like you loose quite a bit going from Hyman as your 1LW to Galchenyuk or Kerfoot. The thing that is concerning is you don’t have much at all on the left side when it comes to guys that can get after it and drive a line, turn pucks over and be a general pain in the ass.

I think the biggest cause for concern is less about being dramatically worse and more about the fact that the team is not improving when many other contenders in the same tier as the Leafs did get better.

Freddy had a 0.895 last year. 30-35 games of league average goaltending is all I need to be happy. Mrazek has been inconsistent so we'll see.

While he isn’t Freddie when he stands on his head, he is very close to the same level as Freddie was when both are at their baseline. Plus he cost over a million less per season to play a platoon role. Really a lateral move quality wise but an improvement cap wise.

Improvement in cap sure. The Op’s point wasnt excitement in lower AAV on goalies.
