The ever changing villian for the day in Toronto is the goalie who got scored on two deflections, a screened snipe, and an outrageous giveaway. But a goalie who hasn't played in a few weeks is the Messiah.
I am sure Leaf players are used to that completely media driven blind range and blind fingerpointing to create drama and intrigue and something for fans get their chunk of flesh from someone from a loss, but hopefully the players have some sense that a new goalie will solve their offense problems.
Flames forwards will play better, defenseman will play the same solid game, and both will continue to block shots. Rittich will have to be solid though like Markstrom.
