Toskala crumbles in shootout: Toronto G Vesa Toskala got lucky to have Saturday's game against the Canadiens go to a shootout, but he did not make the most of the opportunity as he ended up with the loss. Toskala allowed both shooters he faced in the shootout to score as the Maple Leafs lost the game 5-4. Toskala and the Leafs were down to goals with less than four minutes to go in regulation but ended up scoring twice off Jaroslav Halak to send the game into overtime.

Injury Report

Fantasy Analysis

Toskala had not started since allowing seven goals to the Rangers back on Oct. 12 as he had been on the IR with a knee injury. He came into Saturday's game with a 5.56 GAA and his record dropped to 0-2-2 on the year with the shootout loss. Toskala is just a last resort starting goalie. The Maple Leafs TG is also a low-end unit.
(Updated 10/31/2009).

G Vesa Toskala was activated from the injured reserve list on Friday after suffering a knee injury Oct. 10 against Pittsburgh. Up to then, he had no wins, an .812 save percentage and a 5.56 goals-against average. It remains to be seen if he starts Saturday against the Montreal Canadiens as the Leafs had initially been unwilling to use G Jonas Gustavsson, who played Friday in Buffalo, in back-to-back games so soon after a groin injury. 10/30/2009

Toskala saw his first action since Oct. 12 on Saturday after dealing with a knee injury. He stopped 35 of 39 shots in a 5-4 shootout loss to Montreal.

Advice

The next task for Toskala now that he's back on the ice is lowering his unsightly 5.13 GAA.
