Sarge said:Goose has been very good vs. the Rags this year. If it were me, I'd have gone with Reimer last night and Goose tonight.

L K said:I don't entirely have a problem with it as Gus played well last night, BUT this is the same issue that I had issues when they were running Reimer for no reason and leaving Gus to sit on the bench for weeks at a time. You just can't have your backup go a month between starts and expect him to perform.
The Leafs don't have the luxury of having a Martin Brodeur/Henrik Lundqvist in net where they don't really care what the backup does in 10 starts because the rest of the time they are getting Vezina performace. Eventually Gus is likely to cool off a bit and the Leafs will probalby need Reimer to step up. He won't be able to if he's going to get the cold shoulder from Wilson.

Oi. LK, I understand where you're coming from but man, you've been nothing but sour the last little while. I agree going with Gus. I mean, I don't think Gus deserves to sit after one loss. One loss and you're out? Come on. He gave Reimer a far, far, far longer leash. Might as well give Gus a chance. Plus he played well against NYR last game, he gets to show up his countryman.
*Edit: I see Biron is in net. Regardless, he won before against NYR. I don't think he doesn't deserve to start, especially while running a 4-1 record. He's still the hot hand for now. Isn't that what everybody keeps clamouring for?
