I got a feeling hes gonna give us 30 games which honestly is all we need rn in the sense that Sammy has clearly taken the job. That is unless Murray goes 2017 mode and just decimates the league with a 0.930 SV
That's exactly what I was thinking when I drafted him. I drafted Jarry and picked up Vitek Van on waivers as soon as Murray went on IR. If the Leafs defend like they did today, whoever their #1 Goalie is will be a solid asset in fantasy and in reality.
Does anyone know: Why Yzerman let him walk as a 3rd rounder?
Or did Petruzzeli just choose NCAA x 4 years for UFA status?
Regardless, Yzerman has done well finding young goalies:
- Husso (27) for a 3rd rounder
- Nedeljkovic (26) for a 3rd
- Gylander (21) in the 7th
- Bednar (20) in the 4th
- Cossa (19) in the 1st
Cossa + Husso should be a strong tandem for a long time.
I don't have the answer here, but I do believe this is the most important question. My guess would be that Yzerman doesn't believe in him for whatever reason....looks good to me tho
Great signing. Always been a very capable goalie. When he walked from Detroit, I was hoping NJD would grab him.
I think the knock on him was lack of athleticism and inflated stats due to Q’pac system, which limits shot totals. But hard to blame the guy for playing on a good team.
Imagine he will be a good back-up with potential for more.

It was the player’s decision to leave Detroit (my guess is that he saw too many other prospects above him in depth chart).
Voted no, Dubas showing his desperation and all his cards to other GMs that he needs a goalie
Lol what did you want him to do? Play without a backup for at least a week? Overpay to trade for a goalie? Also this isn’t really Dubas’ fault. The chances of 3 goalies getting injured at the same time is very slim. He did the best thing that could have been done since Petrezelli needed an elc anyways.
How does signing a guy who deserved an NHL deal show any signs of desperation
The fact of the matter is Petro deserved the deal and now will be our backup
Dubas could have went out spent a pick and got someone but instead we had a goalie in the AHL who was doing very well and so he rewarded him. And this was a guy Yzerman drafted
So next time pls check the facts before posting
He was NOT drafted by Yzerman...so next time pls check the facts before posting.
