Joseph starting is what is stalling me from pulling the trigger on the over 6

Ok I understand Toskala needs a rest every now and then but why do it when he is 5-0 against an opposition? Why not wait until they are playing a team in which he has worse numbers or even mediocre numbers for that matter. With a team like the Leafs who will be needing every single point possible should they be able to squeak into the playoffs this is a terrible move by coach Ron Wilson REGARDLESS of whether Cujo gets the job done or not in my opinion.

Maybe they didn't focus too much on a meaningless stat and an insignificant sample size?

I'm sure Wilson doesn't look at and doesn't care about stats like that. As a Leafs fan this makes sense to me because you can put CuJo in this game and still expect to win.

Goalie records vs opponents are useless stats that have no impact on future results.

Here's hoping both teams bleed goals, with Joseph eventually getting his first win of the season though. I'm looking for something like a 5-3 game.

That will make happy my parlay of "over 6" and Toronto covering the spread -1 1/2 :toast:

Gotta love how the stupid homer Leafs announcers keep talking about the shot and dont say anything about Josephs terrible positioning. Sure it was a good shot but from that angle he should not be seeing so much net..:ohno:

Way to go Wilson!!! Great move starting Joseph giving up 4 goals and we are still in the 2nd period. I hope these piece of shit Leafs dont make the playoffs by 1 or 2 points so I can bump this thread not starting a goaltender who is 5-0 against his opponent. Jospeh sucks, is washed up, past his prime, and BLOWS!!!

I agree Joseph sucks, but as a Leafs fan I was happy to see him starting tonight, even with how he has played. They need to start him eventually, and you might as well do it against a team you should beat anyways, they are just getting outplayed tonight.

Also, I don't know how many times people here need to say it. That 5-0 stat means nothing and is pretty much useless. I can tell you Wilson doesn't look or care about that fact. They are about to lose this game, which sucks because they need the W and I have a bet on them, but it was the right call starting CuJo in my eyes.

Does ANYONE here care that, in addition to being a meaningless stat AND too small a sample size, it's not even true!
