sherwood40 16 Report post Posted June 11, 2009 I like that the leafs are trying to get a good team going, and I'm not. But what I really like is them taking there goaltending coach from the stupid ducks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cusimano_brothers 1,655 Report post Posted June 11, 2009 I think the Leafs did this backwards; they need goalies they believe in (ones that aren't "called out" by management in the media) before they hire a new goaltending "consultant". No word on the length of the his contract either. When Allaire sees what he has to work with, he'll realize he was conned by the master. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cusimano_brothers 1,655 Report post Posted June 11, 2009 This could mean that the Leafs are going after a goalie. At least one gone, maybe one more to go. When asked by a reporter for his reaction, Joseph said he was hearing it then for the first time! Maybe they'll suit up Allaire and put him in net. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MacK_Attack 108 Report post Posted June 11, 2009 (edited) This could mean that the Leafs are going after a goalie. They've made it abundantly clear that they want Gustavsson. Anyways, the Leafs had limited time to get Allaire, as Montreal was after him, as well. Also, the deal is for three years.
