Other thing that we haven't done last few years is actually draft a goalie that's highly rated. Completely ignored it. Woll isn't the answer, Scott is done. McKay hasn't looked great this year but could be indicative of team in front of him but Dubas has never addressed it. Either trade for a bonafide #1 or use a high draft to select someone. Definitely had years to do it unfortunately we keep trading away number 1 picks for scraps.

How do you know Woll isn't the answer?

No, they traded them away a deep playoff run, since they've had great regular season teams, and their top players are in win-now mode in both contract and age. And they'll probably do it again this year, and I'll be all for it.

Hindsight makes everyone an expert.

Just my opinion but from what I've seen of him in the NHL I'm not getting too excited. Hopefully the kid is the answer. Time will tell. Been 6+ years since we drafted him. If he was the answer he'd be playing.

I don't follow our prospects the way some here do but Hildeby seems intriguing.

Not even getting score effects play from the team. 

They have too much integrity to take advantage of garbage time.

There's not much to choose from but I'll probably vote Matthews & Engvall as at least having some jump.
 
Can the Leafs start playing games against teams I care about again please? I'm not watching the game (luckily) but I find I have zero interest watching them play most Western Conference teams. Kraken, Blues, Coyotes...Yawn.

Not that I think Woll is the answer, either, but goalies often take longer to lock down a spot on the NHL roster than other prospects. Hasek, for instance, didn?t make his NHL debut until 7 years after he was drafted. Shesterkin didn?t make his until 5 years after he was. Outside of the handful of clear elite guys, goalies take a while to get there.
