I'm sure a lot of goalies that made a living as an nhl starter had a rough go at the start of their careers. Is Leland the next Patrick Roy ? Probably not . But I don't think he can be written off just yet. Kind of weird that he was the 3rd man in the AHL. ...Unfortunately for him what skews people's opinions a little is the quality of goaltending we have gotten accustomed to with Kipper... And as far as all of the super-duper expert goaltending scouts writing off Danny Taylor before he gets to play is just dumb.....maybe he comes in and pitches 3 shutouts. Give the guy a chance first.
