Frederik Andersen

Coming out of a slow October and most recently back-to-back shutouts, the big Dane is back to a respectable 2.88 GAA and .914 SV% on the season. Freddy leads the league in saves, TOI and is second in wins with 12.

Slowly coming back to respectability. The team needs him to be better & more consistent, which is easily achievable by the way.

I mean if you're talking about this season stats at .914% sure it's getting respectable now, but the last 4 starts for Andersen have been lights out.  He's been something like .973% the last 4 games.

.941 in 7 November starts - and that includes a stinker against St Louis where the team didn't really show up until the 3rd period. He had a rough start to the season - which is obviously largely on him, but at least somewhat on the coach/GM for not having a backup they were willing to play more. Gotta get your backup into more games early in the year and let your starter get into the season at the pace they're best suited for.

Quickly becoming a bargain and a very shrewd move by Lou and Co.

Lou and goalies, eh?

When the Leafs first traded for and signed Andersen, Mirtle mentioned that he heard the front office thinks they?ve got a read on what makes a good goalie (the fanciest of stats), and got him signed to a league average fair market price for his then-current performance value.

I think they?ve got something really good going with their goalie coaches in Briere and Greco as we?ve seen pretty marked improvement up and down the organization in this area even with existing prospects (keeping Sparks and moving Bibeau) considering the shots and chances we give up regularly.

Would people rather have Freddie and his contract or Price and his ?

That Price contract has so much potential to look awful in the last few years on it (and that's assuming he's just having a bad season/isn't fully healthy right now).

I noticed it in game, but can't say why that warrants anything supplemental.

This really says all you need to know about how ridiculous NHL rules on diving are. If the NHL was really serious about diving guys like Quick and Smith would have multiple fines by now.

Was there no contact there?  Because it looked to me that there was contact there?
