Was crap last year but is showing up this year.

He is too good to play poorly two playoffs in a row.

 

[NikoEhlers]

Didnt think he was all that crap last year, the team is just a year older and able to help out a little more, also doesnt hurt to have a guy like Muzzin in the house

 

[MattySnipes]

He's been one of the best trades for the Leafs. Arguably Lou's best move for the team. Such a horse during every regular season but everyone knows about some of the weird ones he's given up in the playoffs as a Leaf. He's been "steady Freddie" thus far.

His downs definitely get us down sometimes but if we're being honest the team doesn't play great team defense in the regular season for him.

He's currently 29 years old and is a $5 million cap hit, signed for an additional two years. Hope we can re-sign him to a solid deal.

our best player by a mile

 

[KIWILEAFFAN]

Love Freddy always have.
The Great Dane will win a cup here for sure.
Team is maturing all over.
Players you expect to play well are and that's all you can ask for.
My fav apart from Freddy has been JT. His work ethic and match ups are brilliant.
I doubt they would have a chance at eliminating the booins without him to be fair.

[Antropovsky]

He’s been great, love his calmness, true student of the position.

Andersen has outplayed Rask

our best player by a mile

Most important that's for sure

Andersen (Cap hit: $4,500,000) looking good in round 3. Sends his blessings to the Leafs and hopes Murray (Cap Hit: $6,250,000) gets well soon.


Andersen
Woll

great combo. cheap too.

 

[Guided by Veseys]

Remember when people were getting mad at him for not saving shots that were deflected in the slot, sometimes even off of his own teammates butts? Yeah those were great times. Extreme irrationality of an arrogant fanbase.

Meh he let in some soft as shit goals too

2018 game 7:
Krug tying goal
Debrusk GWG

2019 game 7:
Nordstrom 1-0
kuraly 3-1

2020 game 5:
Foudy 2-0

That’s 5 goals in 3 winner takes all games that just cannot go in. He’s doing much better in Carolina so far, but let’s not act like he wasn’t part of the problem here

 

[Phion Keneuf]

Carolina’s defence is way better than ours.

Wish nothing but the best for him. But let’s not pretend we’d be in the ECF if we had him instead of Samsonov.

CORRECTION
Matt Murray
Salary $6.25 million
Cap hit $4.6875 million

 

[Gallagbi]

Rooting for the guy and hoping he can avoid those big, bad goals at costly times

 

[centipede2233]

The leafs defence is not close to canes defence. The canes defence is so good they could win with a Zamboni driver

 

[Menzinger]

Andersen playing well for another team doesn't erase his bad games here.

 

[LeafalCrusader]

The leafs defence is not close to canes defence. The canes defence is so good they could win with a Zamboni driver

Or Peter Mrazek lol

No but that's the point, we tried to fix the part that wasn't broken and have been burned ever since.

 

[hamzarocks]

Another former leaf to win a cup after leaving this cursed team?

We need to relocate the team from downtown toronto to markham/richmond hill and change our names

This guy couldn't make thise clutch saves for us but is going great for the cabes ffs

 

[Bomber0104]

Another scapegoat that evidently wasn't the problem here.

The GM, media, and large portion of the fanbase were 100% dead wrong in their evaluation of Freddy as a goalie, and he's proven to be far better than any option the Leafs have iced since.

Arrogant? Or insecure/unwilling to do some real inward reflection and point out where the real problems have always been (core players, complete buy-in to team defence and compete)?

Matt Murray is a more expensive cap-hit than Freddy Anderson.

Let that sink in for a second.

Wait. He last played in Toronto in 2021, has 5 playoff wins total since then and we're talking about Freddie Andersen?

Yes, the Leafs would have been much better off not chasing him out of town, replacing him with Mrazek. immediately paying a 1st to ditch him, and then acquiring Matt Murray who wasn't even available for the Leafs for the majority of the season.

I'm not sure what there is to dispute.

I would love to compare Matt Murray's playoff record in Toronto to Freddie's in Carolina...

Andersen saving Hurricanes' bacon tonight with some massive saves in OT.
