mau5trap Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 Always loved Toskala It's crazy to think that at one point in time, San Jose had a trio of Nabokov, Kipper, and Toskala Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master Mind Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 He suffered a similar fate as Cloutier, which is a shame. He was better than what he'll be remembered for. By the way, did anyone notice that they always pronounced his name differently in the NHL games than they did on TV? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkeeterHansen Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 He was an average goalie playing on a below average Leafs team - makes him look worse than he was. Good luck in retirement, Vesa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Armada Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 He didn't ruin himself. Toronto ruined him. Either way he gets the last laugh he's a millionaire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bure1994Mclean Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 He played well with the Sharks, still remember when they were faced with the decision to go with either him or Nabokov and they elected to stick with Nabokov; but man did Toronto ever destroy him.

-AJ- Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 Had some bad times, but overall, was a pretty decent goaltender. He had two winning seasons with the Leafs and was fantastic during some of his early days with the Sharks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
