  1. He seems to have a very humorous character, usually its guys who are always smiling and aren't too series that thrive as Leafs goalies, Reimer is another example.

  2. We needed a backup goalie like Bernier after what happened in Game 7. Sure, the whole team collapsed, but Reimer lost his nerve due to inexperience in a high stress situation like that. If we had Bernier back then, I'm sure Carlyle would've put him in knowing he could hold down the fort. With Scrivens? Not so much.

  3. it wasn't reimers fault we lost, it was carlyles fault for throwing a half-assed lineup on the ice, and the defence going to sleep after taking the 4-1 lead!

  4. oh shut the fuck up. Wasting assets and cap space for Bernier snowballed into a terrible summer, especially given Scrivens was very affordable and Frattin was a great depth winger, one of the Leafs' strengths last season.

  5. Who cares who starts. It's better to have two great goalies fighting for a job. That way they'll play their best night in and night out.

  6. Funny that I'm not eloquent but your site's dismissive attitude toward metrics isn't problematic. Oh the irony.

  7. Scrivens played more games in the season than Bernier. He's no better than Scrivens if you're comparing both sample sizes which are relatively small. Scrivens was good and the tandem with Reimer was cheap. Bernier wasn't really necessary.

  8. Well holy sweet Jesus… Fire all the PROFESSIONAL staff and hire this guy instead! You obviously know more than these professionals… You're nothing but a know it all who don't know shit!!! Shut up and leave the decisions to the people who are paid to do so

  9. Lol I'm stating facts. Bernier played fewer games than Scrivens last season. I never said Bernier was bad, I said he wasn't an absolute need. Jesus, learn to read properly.

  10. at one point Broduer played fewer games than other goalies .. Bernier will be the #1 .. He is just better.. More athletic.. It comes more natural to him than Reimer

  11. Leafs got a lot better this year they add dave bolland jonathan bernier david clarkson and mason raymond good luck for the Leafs this season

  12. its amazing to see my idol in 03-04 on the Lewiston Maniacs and is now in the NHL. its just amazing to see a goofy kid with puffy brown hair to a great goalie on the Toronto Maple Leafs

  13. he played less games because look who has in front of him. not James Reimer thats for sure. no offence to James Reimer but he is not as good as Quick

  14. Bernier was awesome in his regular season debut with the Leafs. Solid 3-1 win over the Flyers. Go Leafs Go!
