He's top 10 in save % for starting goalies. Great trade. Flames should have gotten him instead of the guy who was terrible until he played for Hitchcock.
He's over .930 since November 1st.

Ref gets in the way, results in the Leafs scoring. Hate when that happens.

The Habs win 2-1 in regulation time with Carey Price playing much better in net. Ovechkin with an assist.

The Blackhawks score three goals in the third period to defeat the Blues 6-4. Panarin with three points.

I told you guys last year Hamilton was a franchise D. I'm not anti-Flames. Brilliant trade. The Bruins are morons. They'd be cup contenders without the ridiculous Seguin/Hamilton trades.
If you're looking for help in net, DO NOT get a guy in a Ken Hitchcock system who was waiver wire material before joining the Blues. I said that in the summer. Bad move. Elliott will be out of the NHl within 2-3 years. Hitch made Chekmanek look like a star.

The hilarious thing about BigTuna is if you take away his ridiculous Leafs cheerleading he's actually been quite correct on non-Leaf proclamations, so far, lol. Elliot will struggle, Johnson will succeed, Hamilton will turn it around and become a number 1 etc.

You guys gave up a 1st and 2nd round pick for Andersen. He also has a 5 million dollar cap hit. Enough said.

The "1st" was 30th overall. His 5 million cap hit places him 18th in goalie salaries.

The 2017 2nd round pick you gave up will be close to 30th overall too at the rate the Leafs are going. I'm glad the Flames took a chance on Elliot when the aquisition cost is considered. Just saying...

The refs are doing what they can to keep the Oilers in the game.

Of course Bishop and Boyle bring their A games against the Flames and then suck against the grease.

That's not a lot for a guy you'll have for 5 years and is the answer in net.

Seems a bit early to be calling Andersen the "answer", no? He had a very rough start, has turned it around of late, so may want to give it some more time...
