I really hope Toskala grabs the ball and runs with it. The guy has incredible athletic abilities and should be a #1 goalie in the NHL without a doubt. Last year was just sketchy for everyone involved with the leafs, i give him a mulligan and see how he does this year. It is a contract year so he should be ready to go right from the first puck drop of the season.

I forgot all about Kolzig. Whats the rush in TO for the number 1 goalie you got tonnes of goalies you can work with (Cujo, Gerber, Kolzig, Toskala and Pogge. Just pick two and run with it. For my money I would play Kolzig or Gerber behind Toskala and find a home for Pogge if they cant develop him fast.
What they actually need is a tandum of defensive minded D-men like Chara, Lindstrom, Brad Stuart or Regehr type players. People who can make smart plays and move players from the net. I dont care how hard the shot is just how accurate the transition pass is. |

I really think that the leafs should pickup Marty Turco. I know it sounds risky but dallas will throw him away for anything, the leafs will take anything to make it through to the playoffs, and Turco wont cost that much.
And the Eastern confrence will be alot better for Turco

Why would Dallas just give away Turco...?

According to an article in the Toronto Sun today, the Leafs are one of three teams in talks with the purported "best goalie not in the NHL" - Jonas Gustavson. He is a Swedish Elite League player who recently led his team to the championship there, and is 24 years old.
He is touring three cities, of which Toronto is one, while the article states that two other clubs are also interested in him - Dallas and Colroado (the article doesn't make clear if those are the other two cities Gustavson might choose). The article does make clear, however, that he is a highly sought after 'prospect' that the Leafs would welcom with open arms.

How would the eastern conference be better for him there is way less superstars in the west than east if anything the west would be easier |

| Yes the East has more superstars, but the west teams like, Detroit, Aneheim, Chicago, Calgery, San Jose, Vancouver,all have great depth, apose to the east which have only Pitsburg, Buffalo, and Washington have real Depth. |
