Goaltending conundrum

[maplesyrup]

Eff it then... Roll with Reimer and Scrivens and hope they're either good enough to get us the 8th spot (or higher) or bad enough to get us 15th 30th.

Let's shoot for the moon!!!! 

I was talking about the conference... But 30th overall would be um, okay too?  :-\

I dunno, can we take one more year of complete suckage? Supposedly the "next Crosby" is in next summer's draft, what better way to get your franchise center?  Let's go for dead last!

I can take another year... Provided we do it right this time. That said, I'm happier with 8th or higher.

With the Leafs luck I could see them finishing dead last, and then losing the draft lottery and picking 2nd.

Ever the optimist, eh?

Of course, if we get bumped down to 2nd overall; it'll be because EDM won the lottery.

Well, then they take a franchise defenceman in Jones. Either of the top 2 picks in the 2013 draft would be great. MacKinnon could very well still be there at 2, depending on how things play out this year for the kids and who holds the #1 pick.

Will they ever learn how to win?

I am prepared to witness the grandiose exploits of the dynamic duo this year -- starring Reimer & Scrivens -- and keep on dreamin'!

Those two are not bad enough to have the Leafs finish in 30th place. They'll keep us in the middle of the pack.

Maybe we can trade them both for Mason or Dubnyk then?

No, not the middle of the pack, more like between 20th and 30th.  The team just doesn't have what it takes to make the playoffs or crack the top 20.

Healthy Reimer ready to reclaim Leafs net...Click For More

TORONTO ? Spending much of his offseason in the lush province of British Columbia, James Reimer has heard the odd Roberto Luongo rumour.

The chatter means little to the 24-year-old Leafs goaltender.

Refreshed and finally healthy, an upbeat Reimer is intent on reclaiming the starting job in Toronto, anxious to erase the memories of an injury-stained second season.

"That's the goal," Reimer told TSN.ca in a telephone conversation from Toronto. "That's the goal ever since you're three years old, whether you had a great year or a tough year is to go in there and prove that you're the starter. That's what I wanted to do last year and that's what I want to do again this year coming into camp.

"I want to come in and show that I can be the starter and that they need to look nowhere else."

 

[BlueWhiteBlood]

Nice to hear the confidence from him, let's hope that he can pull it off. He's certainly got the right attitude.

 

[Corn Flake]

no! no! Downplay optimism! Health schmelth!

 

[Bender]

Reimer's bad and he should feel bad.

no! no! Downplay optimism! Health schmelth!
