[Kloke] A familiar face has been hanging around Maple Leafs practice and games: Curtis McElhinney. Sounds there’s been some conversations with the Leafs as McElhinney is looking to get back into the game, but nothing serious yet. Something to keep an eye on.

Favourite Big Mac moment was when he came across to make a pad save on Crosby to keep the Leafs in the lead. With that win against the Pens the Leafs made the playoffs.

Curtis McElhinney paid to sit in the stands every game, comes in as EBUG under the pseudonym “Curtis MacElheeny” the next time salary shenanigans means that we decide to ice just one goalie. /s
Sucks it didn’t work out. He was an incredible backup.
Insurance, and possible traction to goalie coach maybe?
Has to be as a coach. Getting back into the game could mean anything, including as a coach. It’s also possible that he’s interested in the office side of the game.
I don’t think the Leafs, or McElhinney, are deluded enough to believe he can offer much more than a warm body on a bench.
