I'm not the least bit concerned because these two goalies, although they haven't played as many games, at least play more consistently, as well as the fact that Murray is healthy. My biggest concern with this group at this point, are the forwards.
When Woll got hurt in game six in vs the Bruins and couldn't go for game 7, my trust in Woll was lost. I don't trust him idk why the leafs signed him. The Leafs have 2 goalies who are injury prone which is scary. Idk what the management were thinking when they singed these 2. I don't quite understand this move.
I still think they are missing one big piece up front. Whether that is a 3rd line center or something else to beef it up, not sure. But other than that I like the looks of the team. I have no complaints about the new pieces Tre has brought in.
Great job, great channel. You and the Alberga and Rosehill podcast are the ONLY two places for proper leafs news for men. Vs, that kid Dangle and his bet boy crew. I rarely if ever disagree with you . Glad to see you agree and put Cowan into the mock lineup. There is zero chance that he doesn’t make the team
Great vid as usual. Correrct me if I'm wrong, but GSVAx is a counting stat, isn't it? GP has to be considered in that case to get a proper comparison between goalies.
I don’t really understand the criticism of this move by the media and a lot of ppl in the comments. The leafs tried their hand at Markstrom, and any other high value goalies were traded elsewhere (Ullmark) or signed (Saros). Nobody else was available. I understand ppl want a proven vet, who doesn’t, but everything is a cost-benefit analysis. Ideally you’d catch a rising star before everyone else knows and save millions. What happened to ‘buy low, sell high’? 😂 both of these goalies are promising and on cheap contracts. I feel very confident in a Woll Stolarz tandem next season, I see the crease as a strong point for the buds next year.
im ok with the goaltending tandem, that c3 would be nice if Minten got that and Cowan for 3lw, Cowan cant go back to junior he was top player in reg & play offs, he needs to be up with the Leafs.
And don't forget about Akhtyamov. Last year split between the KHL and VHL putting up .920 numbers and in the .940s the year before in the VHL. He obviously has to get use to North American ice this off season and less defense style hockey but he will be there pushing for a spot on the Marlies. Leafs may not have a true #1 but they have a lot of goalie options and I think they won't be too scared to try them next year to see what works. I'm not worried about saves just injuries but they have the depth for a reason
I'm optimistic, I think our defense and goaltending look better this coming season than it has in a long time.
Losing Bertuzzi up front sucks, but overall I think the team is better. Hopefully the improved defense and goaltending more than outweighs the loss of bertuzzi up front.
I think Matt Murray is ahead of Hildeby on the depth chart. I don’t think he would re-sign with the intention of being the 4th option. All it will take is a single injury to Woll or Stolarz and he’ll get some backup assignments. Given Woll’s track record I’d say Murray playing 10 games is not that far fetched.

Hi Steven How are you doing today?

Woll played limited games due to injuries. Stolarz played behind Bobrovsky an Gibson
This year vs last
Upgraded D
Worse offense
Better i guess goaltending?
OVERALL: still won't score in playoffs

Great work as always brother
im ok with the goaltending tandem, that c3 would be nice if Minten got that and Cowan for 3lw, Cowan cant go back to junior he was top player in reg & play offs, he needs to be up with the Leafs.
nice to see you making videos again!
Not sure exactly when I started watching your channel but it's been years.
I m happy with Joesph Woll. He is the starter in the playoffs
Leafs have the best goalie tadam in the league they will be in the running for best goalie of the year there going to be really good this year
And don't forget about Akhtyamov. Last year split between the KHL and VHL putting up .920 numbers and in the .940s the year before in the VHL. He obviously has to get use to North American ice this off season and less defense style hockey but he will be there pushing for a spot on the Marlies.

Thanks for this excellent summary and update. Management deserves kudos for the value they acheived at this position.
The biggest problem is which player will show up in playoffs and actually score goals?
I'm optimistic, I think our defense and goaltending look better this coming season than it has in a long time.

I think Woll and stolarz play 35 games each and Hildeby/Murray play 10
