Raycroft vs. Toskala

Here's a look at some work from Hockey Numbers looking at the save percentages of Toskala and Raycroft (left and right respectively) based on shot location:










Looks like we went from a goalie with a glovehand problem to one with a stick side weakness. Still Toskala is again the better overall goalie. There is no doubt that this is an improvement in net for the Leafs.

The interesting thing will be to see how Raycroft reacts to the trade. He can either pout and quit (like in Boston) or he can man up and challenge Toskala.
