Leaf Rumours

a measly little career best mark of .927 would do it.

and he'd have to do it with a concussion to be as impressive.

*phew* thankful Kipper has played at that pace over a messily 17 game stretch multiple times in his career.


More importantly though, why would we give a flying f*ck about how his SV% in Calgary impacts his play as a Leaf. Using your rationale we saw Reimer in double the games played produce at a shit level and shouldn't have gone back to him this year. Thankfully based on the 30+ games we saw him the year prior, management wasnt that shortsighted.
 
Update: now he'd need a cool .930 over his next 18gms to get to a godawful .900 save percentage on the year.

By taking on contracts....Lombardi, Lupul.

Yeah, I guess I'm having a hard time figuring out how the Lupul situation and the hypothetical Kiprusoff trade is really comparable.

I don't like the idea of having that amount of cap space on our roster next season. And do we carry three goalies? Lose Scrivens?
 
Nonis is notoriously a quiet man that says nothing to the media.... yet today he comes out and has a presser?? talking about maybe picking up a goalie??

This all seems too fishy. He has to be doing a diversion. This is so out of his usual tactics. As said numerous times before. I'll believe it when it happens.
 
I actually am not the biggest Reimer fan. I think he is shaky, even in shutouts like the other night, but I want to stick with him to see if he stabilizes and can consistently perform.

I don't want some has been at a huge price tag to take away that golden opportunity to evaluate Reimer in a year when we don't expect to win anything much.

I think what BL is implying is that Calgary would need to pay us assets to take Kipper off their hands.

The same people that keep reporting that we're talking to his camp, don't seem to be implying that type of scenario is being talked about though. You never know, it is Fleeced-er though. There's still a chance we win any deal involving hte Flames.
 
James Mirtle @mirtle

Kiprusoff's save percentage has dropped to .869 on the season. He is last among all goalies with 10+ starts.


SIGN ME UP!!!
 
Kipper probably really just wants to stay home with his kid and is purposely playing like trash. Yeah, that's the ticket.
 
Kipper pulled.

So if we trade for him, we will actually be trading FOR a goalie with an .868sv% and a $6m caphit.

trading FOR that goalie. Not dumping him because he's unplayable, but actually giving up assets to GET him.

I don't think what kind of deal it would be has been mentioned much at all, but I can't fathom a situation where Nonis would part with any kind of asset, to take on that kind of salary to back up James.

CGY would have to be eating a massive chunk of the cap hit.
