Perhaps not statistically the worst, but very few Leafs goalies have caused me as much stress as Vesa Toskala. I'll admit some of that stress came from the fact that there was a good chunk of Leafs nation that loved him at first.

Oh boy for the Sabres-

Don’t think Houser counts, and Dell got banished to the AHL after he checked a dude and got suspended. Our goalies have been so bad one of ‘em forgot basic goalie rules, that’s somethin. Carter Hutton could only see outta one eye or had a brain worm or somethin. Chad Johnson played for us, ochocinco himself. Idk, I go Dell, f*** that dude, dont care if he doesn’t totally hit criteria.
I was either thinking Hutton or Jonas Johansson, but totally forgot about Dell.

We just traded him! Wedgewood didn't seem AHL caliber let alone NHL worthy.
I came here to say Wedgewood.

But he doesn't actually meet the criteria, since he was here such a short time. Was soooo brutal in pre-season and early season, however, that he really stands out.

I honestly thought David Rittich looked so bad, like fundamentally flawed and immobile, that he might have been my next pick who actually met the criteria? But LA sure seems to be getting a different version of him? :dunno:

Oh man, I forgot all about Rittich.

I felt like Toskala let in everything and anything during his era with the Leafs. As a bruins fan, I did not understand why so many Leafs fans seem to let him off the hook. I know the team in front of him was lackluster but the guy was a sieve if there ever was one.

Keeping it to actual full-time starters or backups? I want to say Antero Niittymaki, but from the last decade? This isn't accurate to his on the ice play, but the spiritual answer here is 79. Could also be Michal Neuvirth and his groin, but when he actually played he wasn't that bad. Cal Petersen was never full-time really, but he was awful. We did have a full season of Felix Sandstrom as our backup, but even he wasn't as bad. I'll stick with 79 because f him!

Out of guys that were expected to actually be NHL goalies, Greiss, Hellberg. Husso looks like he is trying to get on their level. Jimmy Howards last season was abysmal but so was the entire team and Jimmy was actually a decent goalie for most of his career. Jared Coreau was always pretty good with the Griffins but was given 21 NHL games over 3 years and he blew it every chance he got, but he wasn't really brought up with expectations of being a full time NHL guy.

Weirdly, I'd say Martin Jones post - 2018-19, but it's so hard to determine considering how bad the Sharks have been. If I have to go entire body of work I will go Kappa Khakonen.

Let's see...just how many former/current Kings goalies are on this list...

In order of the posts:
Bernier (Leafs)
Campbell (Leafs and Oilers)
Scrivens (Oilers)
Labarbara (Oilers)
Rittich
Dan Cloutier (Vancouver)
Martin Jones (San Jose)

...and nobody mentioned the King's worst recent goalie, Cal Petersen, yet.
