The Toronto Maple Leafs goalie situation is way better than they are getting credit for.
First of all, the Toronto Maple Leafs were right to refuse to sign Jack Campbell to a multi-year extension.
In the NHL, if you can’t have an elite goalie (of which there are only five or so: Vasilevsky, Hellebuyck, Shesterkin, Sorokin, Binnington, and maybe Soros as a bonus) it is better to have flexibility than to be committed to someone else.
Therefore, it is better to have Matt Murray on a two-year deal than it is to have Campbell on a five-year deal.
