The Maple Leafs need a new goalie. Someone should set that to music and make it the Leafs’ goal song, because it’s the one thing you hear more often around here than Hall & Oates.
Last summer, with Frederik Andersen’s contract about to expire, his contract ask too rich for the Leafs, and that relationship strained beyond repair anyway, I did the most absurd and comprehensive shopping of the entire NHL’s cadre of goalies.
Unfortunately the comments are gone — maybe forever — but I remember there was a lot of stanning for Ullmark. What I find funny, these months later, is that I dismissed Petr Mrázek out of hand, and I did that because, although he had the best recent record of any of the choices, he had a history of the sort of injuries goalies his age get over and over again.
