Getting Phil Kessel is HUGE! I see Kadri setting up Kessel for years to come, probably not this year tho, Naz could use another year in junior to get bigger and tweak some shit, but he's lookin good already, hes the perfect playmaking center that would compliment Kessel like Savard did in Boston. Gustavsson is legit, he'll be solid in net. Bozak and Hanson are looking good, and Luke Schenn is the captain of the future. Komi, Beauch, and Ex are all fairly young, so they'll be around for a while
I predict the Leafs will make the playoffs because they have a Top 5 Blueline in the NHL, they were 6th in GF in the Eastern Conference last year, they have good goaltending and they are a really big and gritty team.
well u no when u look at it we were 10th in goals for last year and last in goals against.. so bringing in the defence and the monster is a great move... i also think keeping kabrele was a good move because he is a great defence plus he puts up offence if numbers as well i think we will make the playoffs this year
wait 'till you actually see the offense before you criticize, it will be better than you think
their defense + goaltending is also much, much better this year meaning they won't need as much offense as they did last year because their PK and GAA won't be nearly as bad as last year
In 09 he won the swedish "elitserien" leauge (arguably the 2nd best league in the world).
He just set a new elitserien record when it comes to time on the ice without leting any pucks in. This during the play offs..
he is like 24?
There is not that big differese between the qualaty of the top goalies in nhl and the elitserie, where it matters is with the benched ones. Leafs other goalie will be a decent benched one.
I´m not a leaf or färjestad fan. but this dude got a bright future
damn these guys are good, they predicted everything right LOL
