Pierre LeBrun reports on the goaltending market two days prior to free agency opening.
He reports that the Leafs have yet to make a contract offer to Frederik Andersen, but he doesn’t rule out a last minute offer before free agency opens.
LeBrun says that he believes Andersen is on the shortlist of the Carolina Hurricanes and that the Hurricanes own UFA goaltender Petr Mrazek is on the shortlist of Toronto. He says that both goalies will have offers from multiple teams, however.
He also reports that both the Hurricanes and Leafs have interest in trading for Darcy Kuemper of the Coyotes and that the Hurricanes are trying to sign Jonathan Bernier, whose UFA rights they acquired in last week’s Alex Nedeljkovic trade.
