Leafs See Back-Up Goalies

via Puck-rakers,

No Olaf Kolzig for the Caps. They’re starting Brent Johnson in goal. In the newsroom on Tuesday, some vile cynic wondered aloud if the Blue Jackets led the league in facing back-up goaltenders. They do not, actually. That would be Toronto, center of the hockey universe, which has seen 20 No. 2s this season. Man, 41 years without the Cup in Toronto, and now opponents are trotting out their back-ups. Harsh.

Heh, this has been an item of discussion right from the beginning of the season.  But really, if you are going to give your main guy a night off - playing your backup against the Marli… I mean Leafs is not a bad play.  And consider how many times these so called backups have won!!

Any team that counts Tucker or McCabe as ‘stars’ is going no where fast!
