Toskola is not a strong goalie. He's a Roman Turek or Roman Cechmanek. Good enough to be a starter for their respective teams until someone better comes along and wins their spot. He'll be back playing in Europe before you know it. The Monster will win the starting job this season, and could do it prior to the Olympic break. He has looked strong in the preseason games he's played in, granted I don't think any of them were full games. His irregular heartbeat scares me. Back to Toskala, goalies like him come and go. He's definitely not an elite goalie or even a top 20 starter in my eyes. I don't even know if he's a top 30 guy.
The Leafs should be a stronger team, but they'll barely squeak into the playoffs this season. They need some upper tier talent up front before they can really do some damage on the scoresheet. Grabovski could barely make a Habs roster... and Blake is in the twilight of his career. Poni as good as he is, benefits playing on a team that lacks depth up front. I do like some of the new young talent coming in like your Stalbergs, Bozaks, Hanson's, and Kadri's. Having said that, will it be enough? Also, can Kessel flirt with 40 again with no elite playmaker this time around?
