Frederik Andersen Traded to the Maple Leafs

Former Ducks goalie Frederik Andersen has been traded to the Maple Leafs which solves their goalie issues for sure. The price of this was the 2016 30th overall pick they got from the Kessel trade with the Penguins and a 2017 second round pick. Right after the trade the Leafs signed him to a 5 year contract. That was especially smart because he would have been a restricted free agent starting on July first. Andersen is 26 years old and isn't even in his prime yet, (prime is when you're in your best years usually when you're 28-30).  He was 22-9-7 this season with the Ducks and is a true playoff performer and always picked up the Ducks when John Gibson wasn't doing so well. When the Ducks decided to trade Andersen it clearly meant that John Gibson as going to be the new starting goalie for the Ducks, and that they preferred him over Andersen. This means that Jonathan Bernier will probably be the backup for the Maple Leafs or they could use Garret Sparks who played well in his only games with the Maple Leafs. This was an ok trade for the Ducks, they now have two first round picks in the draft (24th and 30th), but for next season it's not going to have that much of an effect except when John Gibson doesn't play well, then the would need a good backup. This was a good trade for the Leafs and they continue to rebuild and plan for the future well. Who won the trade? Will Andersen play well for the Leafs? Will Gibson be able to be a good starting goalie for the Ducks? stay tuned....
