Jonathan Bernier is headed to the Toronto Maple Leafs—and James Reimer has company. Bernier, who'd backed up Jonathan Quick, netted the LA Kings winger Matt Frattin, goalie Ben Scrivens and a second-round pick in 2014 or 2015.

That's a good pick up. Bernier is real good and is just coming into prime age for a young developing goalie. -

Re: Goalie carousel continues in Toronto, LA gets Frattin, Scrivins and pick
Anton Khudobin should be highly touted in my opinion. I think he can be a starter in this league.I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?"
"Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet.
You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
It was all true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.

I really hope so, but be it that he's UFA I think someone will drive the price up on him.Originally posted by mightysimi View PostI remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?"

That is true but he isn't proven yet so there isn't too many teams that will spend a ton on a backup.Comment

19 Starts, 14-5-1, 2.03 GAA, .933%, 2 SO's.
He has potential to split and earn the job.I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?"

Re: Goalie carousel continues in Toronto, LA gets Frattin, Scrivins and pick
I'm not arguing that he isn't good but with such a small body of work on the eastern conference champions, I doubt any organization would pay any more than back up salary with an option to compete. However, there aren't that many teams on the goalie hunt these days.Originally posted by The King View PostComment
