Rangers @ Leafs - Oct. 22nd, 7:00pm - TSN4

Bob is apparently sat at +3.6 goals saved above average.

From what I’ve seen he’s conceded quite a lot of goals that have been tipped/screened etc. I don’t think he’s let any absolute sitnkers in (or certainly any more than normal or that have been particularly egregious).

I don’t think he’s been amazing, but I don’t think he’s been bad. And he does have a shaky defence in front of him.

Whether he was worth the cost and the loss of Woll and/or Hildeby I think will only become apparent if/when the Leafs make the playoffs and he proves to be a difference maker there.

I think Bob is just pacing himself for the long season and the playoffs to come. He’s doing enough to keep them in every game. And the reason it’s always 3 goals in is because of the disorganization in front of him.

It’s only one game, but what a huge showing for John Chayka’s offseason work on one scoresheet, eh?

Duhaime, MacEwen, Blueger, Paul, Marchenko, and even Bobrovsky putting in big supporting efforts for the win

I took my son to this one. Unbelievable game. Sloppy at times but I really do think this is a good team.

It is feeling like there is an it factor that is back in the organization where the team is capable of ramping up. The blueline needs to be addressed at some point but I think the centre depth is fine if we look at Tavares as more of a 2/3 guy instead of outright 2C.

Paul isn't really what you would call a high end 2C but I think this is redundant if he's playing with line drivers like Nylander/Marchenko
