What did Giggy sign for in Colorado?
$1.25M

Why didn't Burke want to keep him around again?

With the virtual cornucopia of young goalies in his system, why would he?

Also Giggy was almost Connolly-esque with his 'lower body' problems.

You can say it, he had problems in the junk area.

Yeah I can't blame Burke for not re-signing Giguere.  His recurring groin problems were starting to get comical.  Maybe he'll be ok as a backup, but if he takes on any more of a heavy workload he's apt to re-injure that thing again and we're right back where we started.  It was a risk, I guess it looks bad on the Leafs now.

I agree, it's like he could never gro-in to his position in Toronto.

Good point.

So far it's worked out great too.

Guess he didn't foresee a cheap head shot by a mtl player.  Also he was very optimistic of the Monster.  As such, I can understand why Burke did what he did.
