doom88 Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 @TimKerrFan12When you have someone as delicate as Bryz in net the backup role becomes that much more important. If Bryz implodes at some point or is lost to injury this season do you honestly think Leighton can step in and assume the starting job successfully? Keep in mind every team in the NHL passed on him when he was on waivers. My opinion aside what does that say about the league's opinion of Leighton's abilities?Worse than that, he cleared re-entry waivers at half price and the ability for other teams to screw Philly. The dude sucks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL!Occasionally, but certainly not this time. He caught lightning in a bottle once, but turned back into a pumpkin before the final dance.The Leaky case is one of many reasons I personally prize consistency. I hate gambles on guys who suddenly burst onto the scene after lackluster history. Once they do it two or three times, we can talk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
