"Update: G Martin Jones will make his second consecutive start for the Leafs tonight against the Rangers, Jones recorded a shutout Saturday night against the Penguins.
-David Alter"
Jones, coming off a shutout, was recalled from the Marlies ealier this month, when
Joseph Woll sustained an injury.
With
Ilya Samsonov struggling lately, sending Jones, who's red hot, is a logical choice, but it still surprising to chose your AHL goalie for two straight games instead of your number one.
If Jones can continue to perform like he did in his first three starts, we could very well see the Leafs trade Samsonov, and trust the Woll/Jones tandem for the playoffs.
Do you think Samsonov will be traded?
