Leighton played well last season and in the playoffs. When he gets back from injury I expect him to be the starter and play the same. He won't win any awards, but he's a solid goalie.

boucher was NOT terrible. there were many losses credited to him where he allowed only 1 or 2 goals, and the offense scored zero. in fact, during that long suck streak, boucher was often the bright spot in games, as the only person to show up to play.
