Boston probably happily takes a first for Ullmark

I can’t begin to imagine a Leaf fan feeling this way.I'm so sick of going out and spending dough on goalie castoffs from other teams.
I wish we could just go with the draft picks, Woll and Hildeby.
He will turn to shit as soon as he pulls on our jersey because Leafs and assholes.
Calm down eggheadWell trying bad goalies hasn't worked so I want to see us try good goalies for a change. Just to mix things up a bit.
We were all excited about Freddie, and Jack, and then Sammy had some decent showings, and they were all crap.Well trying bad goalies hasn't worked so I want to see us try good goalies for a change. Just to mix things up a bit.
We've spent how much trade capital, money, and time on bust-errific goalies over the years?I can’t begin to imagine a Leaf fan feeling this way.
All bad ones though.We've spent how much trade capital, money, and time on bust-errific goalies over the years?

Is Boston going to send us the former Vezina winner without some stupid overpay? Are we going to again sign some 5 x $5M deal or worse on a guy who they played as their backup and who we beat to turn the momentum back our way (before Sammy gave it right back to them the next game)? I doubt they trade him to us and I doubt we're going to see him come in and just do like we hope and kick ass.
I have zero confidence in this move that we've tried over and over, even though he'd be the best gamble of the bunch. It feels like another Freddie situation all over. And how many 1sts and prospects are we going to throw away on goalies? Give me the goalie UFA list and just get a decent one who could surprise on the high end for a short cheapish contract.
We didn't think so at the time.All bad ones though.

yeah i'm not too fond of the idea of paying up for a guy like ullmark.
There’s too much revisionist history and kidding yourself content in here to make me want to address it all now that I’m on my cell. Maybe tomorrow.lol...what the fuck is this? Freddie was fine and a good move overall. The mistake was using him like he was a Vezina calibre number 1 and never having a tandem mate with him. Nobody was "excited" about Jack. He was a good gamble to make in hopes of getting a backup or 1B tandem guy and played fine here before getting the bag. The problem again was playing him out of slot as if he was something he wasn't. We treated him like a 1A or a starter instead of a 1B/Backup and fuck Samsonov. We knew he was junk when we got him. Another guy that if we slotted him in as what he is (backup), it wouldn't have been a problem.
They need the cap and the goalie market isn't loaded with buying teams.
Again? Did I miss something? Did we sign a goalie to a bad long term deal that I was unaware of? We keep spending 3-4 million dollars on dogshit instead of just going and getting a good goalie for ~5.
We've literally never tried it. The closest thing to it is the Freddy move and that was overall very good, we just overplayed the hand.
A distinction needs to be made on trading a 1st with Mrazek (for a 2nd) to get rid of a dogshit goalie we tried to cheap out on as a stop gap to get rid of his salary, and trading a 1st for a recent Vezina winner.
