At first I wanted to say he got one for sure, but then I wondered why this took so long. Maybe two-way first year, one-way second?

Can you do that though? I'm not sure you can. I think it's all or nothing on the one way vs two way approach.

Yup. It happens quite frequently with players in Scriven's position, especially goalies.
Corn Flake said:I feel like he could easily point to the Holzer one-way and say "hey I proved as much or more than he did, so gimme one 'o' those one-way deals too".
CarltonTheBear said:According to @KyleTheReporter, his contract is in fact a two-way deal in year one and one-way in year two.
Yes you are right about no upgrade as far as a new goalie...but,I like to think of both Reims and Scrivens as maturing player upgrades.Hopefully one of these guys can be a solid no.1.Peter D. said:I have no problems with this, but is it bad that my initial thought was, "Yup, we are going to enter this season with no upgrade in goal." :-X

I wonder what happens next year if Scrivens and Reimer falter this season and a new number one goalie is brought in. I guess a trade is the only option in that scenario?

Scrivens would still be able to play in the AHL during the second year of his contact, it would just cost the Leafs his full salary. He might also take up playing time from another goalie though, especially since Sparks would be eligible to play in the AHL that season.
