Thread: Dubas trying to trade Andersen for Hamilton
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>JaredOfLondon</b></div><div>Uh huh, so he keeps getting trades because hes not great? That makes even less sense since then like 99% of players would be trades all the time.
Id love to hear your explanation why he isnt great, but im sure its very nick kypreos.
Have at er, hoss</div></div>

Exactly right. He's good but not great so he holds value. His size and potential are tantalizing so his value gets over inflated.
He isnt good because he loses body position, gets caught out of position and gets caught flat footed far too often. He's a good defender but not among the best in the league.
Stop acting like I'm calling him pure garbage because you've only helped me make my point, that he's overrated.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>JaredOfLondon</b></div><div>yeah, again, that's not true at all. He's exactly what the leafs need and just because some idiot GM's traded him doesnt change how good it is. He'd be absolutely incredible in toronto, or any team for that matter. He was good in boston and then great in calgary.
seriously "keeps getting traded" is the dumbest reason to think a player isnt good.</div></div>

"Keeps getting traded" isn't the reason I think he isn't great (see how I changed "good" to "great" there? Because I think he's good, I just don't think he's "one of the best defenders in the league that would instantly solve their biggest issue" like you say. He's a top 4 guy, he's not among the best in the league though and he is overrated, as I said, but good try on twisting my words sparky)
But I digress
I know he isn't great and THATS why he keeps getting traded

Thread: Leafs 2020-2021
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>NYR1983</b></div><div>Sounds like he would fit in well on a bad team like the leafs.</div></div>

For any goaltender to do well on the Leafs they need to be upper echelon. Even the best in the world will look bad at times because the team is built terribly. The defense is thin and the forwards refuse to backcheck. It's a joke when you really look at it.
That's why the Leafs need Andersen and if they traded him (plus? smh) for Fleury it would be ridiculous. If you put Andersen on a defense first team like the Isles or Carolina he'd be in the Vezina conversation every year.
It's why Georgiev would burn out on the Leafs every game as well, because he's bad, he's always been bad and there's nothing to indicate that he's about to change any time soon.
