I would rather Grubauer over Anderson! People blame everything on the goalie. Look at the whole team, not just one player everyone.

Kings don't need or want Dermott. I'm sure there's a team out there that could use an decent young depth LHD. The Kings aren't that team.

He’s better than Anderson. The reason why Anderson has so many starts was because who did they have as a backup? Hutchinson, then Campbell for a bit. Who did Colorado have? Francouz.

Freddie in the playoffs in his 4 years with the Leafs in deciding games, so Games 6 and 7 has a record of 0-8 and stats of GAA 3.49 SV% .877.
He absolutely sucks if he has to close out a series in the playoffs

not a one time thing, 4 years of the same thing...botching games 6 and 7 for 4 years in a row with a record of 0-8 and stats of GAA 3.49 SV% .877

That is freddie being hot garbage when he has to close out a series. If he was as good as leaf fans claim he is, you wouldnt be trying so hard to get rid of him

hes 31 next year too, hes nto going to get any better, a team will be lucky if you get a consistent level of play that he is now going forward.
what young and just entering their cup window are going to tie their wagon to a guy who has playoff issues and will be 32 when you have to give him a new contract.

That’s because he only played 36 games! Haha. You gotta look at that stuff. Anderson played way too much, and is overrated.

Ya he’s only played 36 games. Which is why I said u can’t start him 55+ times a year. He’s always hurt or just isn’t good enough to start 55 times a year.

Avs can keep Grubauer if they want, they have the room for him. They arent going to throw more money at a 32 year old goalie in Freddie who cant get over his own issues to be a reliable goalie int eh playoffs

This is what is wrong with Leafs fans with this dumb trade idea they are obsessed with. Your team is trying to win too and you arent fooling anyone thinking you are giving the Avs the better chance fo winning swapping goalies.

He is actually. Keep in mind he has Francouz as a backup, and he is very good. Anderson starts to play 40 games, and he’s slowing down!

They need a veteran LHD that is either a UFA or on a short-term deal. Someone like Nick Leddy or Nic Hjalmarsson, both have fewer than 2 seasons remaining on their contracts and wouldn't get a protection slot in next summer's expansion draft. Ryan Murray was also mentioned as a possibility by Lisa Dillman on The Athletic today, although I think his injury history makes him an unlikely target.

The reason why they need a LHD is because the left side is "very young" and they want a veteran presence to mentor the kids and play big minutes next to Doughty. 23-year old Dermott doesn't help with that. They already have a stable of young guys to choose from, including Bjornfot, Anderson, Clague, MacDermid, Brickley, & Hults.

thank you...exactly my point. Leaf fans who want this trade cant sit there and pretend like Avs are getting the upgrade here since last time I checked Leafs are trying to win, which includes their starting goalie

As a Leafs fan I wholeheartedly agree.

In defence of my people though, we're angry, tired, desperate and trapped in a 50+ years abusive relationship with the team we love. It makes us all kind of stupid.
