Scrivens now Numero Uno in Leafs net
Having won two of his 3 NHL starts and providing playoff-calibre netminding yesterday in stealing a win over then Blues, Ben Scrivens is now the Leafs top goalie. Even when Reimer returns it will be slow going, with JR playing one of every three or four games, probably until February at least. For the next few months, barring a trade or free agent signing, Ben will hold down the fort.
1. Ben Scrivens
The best goalie at training camp now getting an opportunity to show he belongs in the bigs. Mobile, confident big man is developing into a solid Allaire student, now graduate.
2. James Reimer
Concussed or whiplashed, he remains a major hope of the team and Leafs fans. Thank God his helmet / mask when flying off, for if it had stayed on the injury may have been much worse.
3. Jonas Gustavsson
I wouldn't be surprised to see Owuya in the 3 slot soon. The Monster has never proven he is an NHL calibre goalie, and being 2 years older than Scrivens, he may never be as good as Ben is now. Is there any way Burkie can trade him to a Swedish elite league team for a big, undrafted winmger?
4. Mark Owuya
called up from the ECHL to join the Marlies after Scrivens went to Leafs, mark In Da Park continues to shine and may switch places with Gustavsson soon, if the latter cannot be traded.
5. Jussi Rynnas
Struggling with the Marlies this year; hoping he can either turn it around quickly, or get a fresh start with another AHL team
6. Grant Rollheiser
22 year old netminder plays for Boston University in NCAA.
7. Garrett Sparks
18 year old is Buds goalie of the future, a great prospect.
