Confirmed with Link: Leafs acquire Bernier for Frattin, Scrivens, 2nd in 14 or 15

[false bobo]

Really hate to lose Frattin but Reimer and Bernier could make a solid 1A/1B for years to come.

 

[Habs514]

Good pickup!

 

[Felstead]

Woah... Don't know what to say other than both goalies are gonna push eachother hard, never a bad thing.

Frats, gonna miss that guy. Played a strong game for us when he was up.

 

[timlap]

Hugely relieved we didn't give away our 1st. Will miss Frattin.

Have no idea how to feel about Bernier- I just think goalies are too unpredictable. Could be unforgettable like Kiprusoff, or more like Toskala. I'll keep my fingers crossed.

 

[LeafShark]

What was wrong with Scrivens? We really could have used those assets elsewhere.

 

[Schenn]

We kept our first round pick. Could have been a lot worse.

Yeah. At first glance I am not standing here saying we overpaid or anything. I was always just indifferent on getting Bernier. So I will reserve judgement I guess.

 

[FlareKnight]

I really like it personally. Do like Reimer as a goalie, but it can't hurt to have two guys going at it and seeing who the top goalie ends up being. It's not a huge price to pay either to improve our goaltending as a whole so I say good job to Nonis.

Make no mistake. Leafs management view Bernier as an upgrade. He comes to Toronto as a starter.


Not sure about this now lol

I really love a Bernier-Reimer tandem

 

[TMLife*]

Was hoping just frattin + 2nd and then trade scribbles for a second to Edmonton. But whatever

 

[Hero]

10x better than what was rumored.

 

[Philadelphia Ducks]

Solid goalie pick up for you guys, but my heart aches for Reimer, haha.

 

[Jacob8hockey*]

I never liked Scrivens but had high hopes for frattin, gotta give to get and Frattin will be missed.

 

[DD03]

Frattin is easily replaced in this draft alone.


Bernier however, if he pans out.. isn't.

 

[Nylanderthal]

Obviously I'm dancing in my house as I type this

 

[WildcatMapleLeafs28]

Awesome deal for Toronto. Frattin was good but you have to give to get. Bernier will benefit us nicely.

 

[weems]

Big Frattin fan but thats a good deal.
Bernier will prove to be a better goalie then JR pretty fast.

 

[mikeo1]

Sucks for Reimer after his performance last year, but at least it gives us some insurance.

 

[N o o d l e s]

Congratulations guys, that's a hell of a deal! No way I could see Bernier going without a 1st coming back, well done by Nonis.

Nice goaltending tandem you guys have now, hopefully Bernier pans out.

 

[firstemperor]

That's an amazing trade. I've vouched for Bernier for a while.

 

[Leafidelity]

Think I like it.

Interesting. Poor James.

 

[Schennanigans]

Frattin? ****. Not sure why we need Bernier when goaltening was a strong point last season. Healthy competition is good, and we really didn't have someone good that can step in for us had Reimer went down o injury. So I guess it something that was necessary. Sucks to see Frattin go though.

 

[Woodman19]

Wow, steal for the Leafs. We just acquired potentially a Franchise goalie.

He will do superbly well in our system.

 

[Guy Boucher]

Sucks to lose Frattin. I really believe he's very soon to reach another level of offense.

 

[AvroArrow]

I liked fratty, but have been wanting Bernier forever. Love the deal.
