Samsonov did manage to bounce back from his struggles this season, and the Leafs hope he can do it again. In his last three games, the Russian goalie allowed a total of 15 goals.
Samsonov on allowing 15 goals in last 3 GP:
"I forgot about this. Keep on working. It doesn't mean after 3 games I get some bad goalie. We see in the last 3 months what's going on. I believe in myself, in my skill. I believe in everybody in this room"
