This is not a surprise by any means, but it looks to be all but confirmed at this point. Wish Sammy nothing but the best

As expected. Hes a decent starter for a fringe team. At best
SoupOfSomeYoungGuy
As they should. He’s had trouble being healthy and good lately.

I hear Washington needs a goalie. š
TheCarrier89
For the best. Heās a decent goalie who can put together a string of great games but heās too inconsistent to be a bonafide starter. Wish him the best.

Probably the least surprising news this Summer for the Leafs.
I like Sammy. Seems like a good guy, and when he’s hot, he’s a genuine talent. But he’s just TOO inconsistent. It’s a coin flip whether he’ll save his team when he’s in net, or cost them the game, and we just can’t have that.
Until he finds that stability and consistency, he’s going to struggle to find long term opportunities. I hope he does, one day.

I assume this means we have something in the works, because we need someone who can play at least 40 games and more than likely will have to play more than 40 with Woll’s injury history.Ā

Right call by both parties.
Wish him the best. Very likeable guy but we all need a change.

Only leafs goalie since Belfour to win a playoff series so thatās something. Understandable why heās going elsewhere though
billy_zef
He’s not going to win you a cup, decent 1B or backup though.

Watch Samsonov reach the conference finals next year wherever he lands.
carnotbicycle
Kinda like Freddie I’m sure he’ll do well wherever he goes. Just got stale with us unfortunately. Wish him the best.

Just the same sentiment here. I had high hopes for the guy who is clearly capable of being a talented goalie but it aināt gonna be in Toronto. Hopefully he gets a good therapist this summer and gets out of his own head. On that note letās hope Woll gets in some tough ass shape this off season and kills it next year! These guys need to spend less time golfing. We deserve better.

Toronto is a tough hockey market.
Heās going to land on his feet somewhere, best for him itās where the spotlight shines a bit less bright.
HeyMarty10thalready
Good

He needs to go play in Anaheim once they move Gibson. Or somewhere low key and just focus on being goalie. Heās too hard on himself and that wonāt work here.

good riddance

I don’t think there’s a better ufa goalie than Sammy. I also think he’s not gonna take a pay cut. Toronto’s D did him no favors last year, it’s a tough call. Wish him luck wherever he goes

Whoever signs him long-term will regret it

They confirmed this in the press conference after they hired Berube
Actual_Cobbler_6334
Best of luck to him elsewhere, he was a treat to watch in 2022-23.

Great guy, wish we could have kept him as a 1b, but no starter makes it impossible.

This is shocking, no one could of guessed it

I don’t think the Leafs will be able to find a replacement that is an improvement over Sammy.

Please – I have a hard enough time keeping MY head straight
Falconflyer75
I like Sammy and I think heās great in backup role he just shouldnāt be put in starter in a high pressure environment
However I have nothing but respect for the way he battled back this season very few could do that
Hold your head up high Sammy
sansaset
Love ya Sammy but it’s the move that has to be made..
tbh with his cap hit and the weak D core we iced in front of him i honestly he exceeded my personal expectations.
He was solid in that Tampa series and gave this core every opportunity to get that first round series win.
best of luck with his next team!!
Showtime98
Good. Love him as a person but its time to move on
Coffeedemon
As long as he maintains his unreliable play whenever we might face him that’s OK by me.
