A lot of respect should be given to David Ayres, who came in as the emergency back-up goaltender when the Carolina Hurricanes lost both their goalies to injury in Saturday’s game. He might have had a storybook ending, but for the Toronto Maple Leafs, they lived through a nightmare.
Despite the loss, there’s still one bright side just around the corner for the Toronto Maple Leafs–the NHL Trade Deadline.
GM Kyle Dubas will be in a bit of a time crunch, but if one thing’s apparent, the Leafs need a shake-up in one way or another.
