Raycroft to Detroit is a completely fabricated rumour with absolutely no basis in fact.

Detroit has Hasek and Osgood (both of whom have won a Stanley Cup), as well as prospect Jimmy Howard (who had a terrific training camp).

They are saving their money for Peter Forsberg. According to TSN hockey analyst Pierre Maguire and his reliable sources, the Red Wings are the FRONTRUNNERS for his services.

At least I can provide my sources.

right on, I am happy with the combo of Raycroft and Toskala and would feel sick about the possibility of having a tandem of Toskala and Clemmenson, solid comment

trade him for a bag of hockey pucks. You lose his salary and sign Peca. Leafs PK will be a lot better.

There are only 2 ways of providing good goaltending.

#1 is to have one GREAT goltender. It doesn't matter who the back up is because he'll never really play. (ex. Vancouver-Luongo and NJ- Brodeur)

#2 is to have a GOOD goalie tandem. The two good tendies compete for the number one spot and play better than they ever should. (ex. Anaheim- Giggy/Bryz and the Minny- Fernandez/Backstrom)

Since the Leafs DO NOT have a GREAT goaltender in their system (atleast not for a while) they MUST keep their good goalie tandem. It is the only way to keep upscale goaltending all season long. Plus, the best way to spend money is on one/two goaltenders. (and 2 mil. really isn't tons)

The really painful part is that Manny was an UFA and could have been signed at any time. He was getting ZERO attention until the season actually started.

Man, you can't say "exactly my point" when you're trying to knock Canadians and their teams prospects when you clearly know absolutely nothing about anything. The fact that you didn't even recognize the Marlies as a farm team puts you in the stereotypical category that you know nothing.

Jimmy Howard was traded to Boston at the deadline and released. No one has signed him.
