In the Leafs defence, they have played rather poorly a lot and made several questionable roster moves.

He was on emergency recall according to CapFriendly
Because Carter Hart got clipped, I was intrigued about maybe pitching an extra goalie we had to help keep the price down on Scott Walker. (Not a very popular thought around here as I came to find out)
So something is happening and I do not see a transaction from the Phantoms yet.
Looks like a move to get cap space & add a goalie. I don't see anyone that capable from the Phantoms.
Smells like a trade about to go down.

Outside of bringing in a true starter (which, considering the unknowns around Hart's legal issues, is probably a good idea), I suspect they want to give Fedotov or Sandstrom a shot. And, if they were making a big move for a goalie, I suspect they'd be sending Petersen's salary the other way. It's possible they were just getting the waivers issue out of the way for a trade, but it's equally possible they're just giving themselves the potential flexibility in case they need it, but have nothing imminent (or even anything that will go through). They might not even be sending Petersen down. We've seen similar moves approaching the deadline in years past.

They called Sandstrum up.
I looked at him yesterday
Of qualified AHL goalies, he's 41st with 3.23 GAA and 46th with 0.882 save% this year
Peterson was apparently playing very poorly so maybe they figured it couldn't get much worse.
More likely they opened up a few hundred thousand in cap space before the deadline.
27 yrs old, 3.62 GAA with .887 save%, in his NHL career
NHL games: 3W 16L 4 OTL - 3 wins in 23 NHL appearances
He's never played a playoff game in the NHL, AHL or ECHL
He's probably there to be a warm body to keep the Zamboni operator out of the game.
I have to believe Briere has something else in mind as they head towards the playoffs.
It remains to be seen whether he can make a deal.

Or expand the 3 on 3 to 10 minutes and a tie represents a point each. No point for reaching overtime.Arn said:
