Andersen for Murray

Created by: Leafs_and_Sens_Fan
Team: 2020-21 Toronto Maple Leafs
Initial Creation Date: May 19, 2020
Published: May 19, 2020
Salary Cap Mode: Basic
Description
Pittsburgh signs Jarry to a 1 year deal. If he continues performing like he did this year they sign him long term. If not they sign Freddie and let Seattle take Jarry.

Toronto saves some money compared to re-signing Freddie and get a younger goalie (their goalie prospect pool isn't looking too hot right now).

Andersen is the flavor the month for trading. I agree, Murray is a better solution for Toronto.

Andersen is better than Murray and it isn't close. No way should the Leafs do this, let alone add!
I don't even hate Murray as an experiment but there is no way I am giving up real assets when we have one of the better goalies in the league.

I made jokes leafs should target binnington as he is from Ontario and he is younger than freddie and comes due around the same time. But he will be expensive but then again so will freddie.

Another option get a reasonably priced 1b goalie and just play the double goalie system Campbell starts one game Goalie B starts the other. Could save the leafs cap money to go build a better defense around those 2 goalies like the islanders did.

this trade was just a rumor people heard about over the weekend I would not look to deep into it. Same with marner going to Dallas for Klingberg. Sure Dubas will probs pull a "surprise nobody saw that move coming" but as he often states the trade needs to make the team better than it already is.

Leafs aren't trading Freddy, guarentee he takes a discount. Best friends with Matthews and lowkey guy, 5x7 for Fred

Andersen played like a middle tier goalie this past season and is a one year rental so in trade he wouldn't have as much value as you think; also don't forget there are plenty of goalies available also.

I am aware. I would bet on Andersen's past 3 years of being one of the best in the league rather than one poor showing and not trade him for a goalie who has been bad for 2+ years now.

Like all pro sports it's a 'what have you done for me lately' business if you expect top return. I'm not saying murray isn't overvalued here necessarily, but I think Andersen isn't worth as much as most Leaf fans think he is. Just look at Lehner who easily outplayed Andersen and was moved at the TDL versus the offseason for not much

Anderson wasn’t that good this year. Neither was Murray, but in no world is Anderson “way better”

You clearly didn’t watch Murray much last season. He posted a .919 save percentage and had a 14.67 GSAA

and then lose him in the expansion draft if Jarry continues to outplay him?

he is without a doubt better though.... "not that good" = average. Murray was terrible. slight edge to Murray last year but Andersen crushed him the year before that as well.
Andersen has been a lot more consistent. this is the first year he has been below .914sv%...so his bottoming out is .909 wheras murray has already been worse than that, and isnt even at .900 this year

Yeah, I'm thinking if Pitt is willing to move on from Murray (although exp draft certainly factors in) it's likely salary related.

Your rumours you are looking into are the weekly NHL mailbag on Sportsnet. Fans asking the commentators questions about their favorite team. None of it is real. On top of that no one even suggested Andersen would be traded to Pittsburgh. It was, "should TO trade for Murray" since Jarry may have taken the top spot in Pittsburgh making Murray expendable. The answer from the write was, he doubts thats a smart move because he doesn't think Murray is as good as Andersen.

With all that said, Murray is awesome, really great Thunder Bay boy!

if by "here" you mean in Quebec, where AZ will be in 2024, then I'd say he probably won't.

Why would he go to a team that cheats (draft) and still can't make the playoffs?

I don't even think he goes to Arizona if they stay there. The team is broke and has no fans.
