Former Panthers goalie Sergei Bobrovsky is struggling with the Maple Leafs, while Jacob Markström has helped Florida get off to a stronger start.
Goaltender Sergei Bobrovsky is enduring a difficult start with the Toronto Maple Leafs after departing the Florida Panthers in free agency. Signed to a three-year, $21 million contract, Bobrovsky holds a 1-3-2 record with a 3.29 GAA and an .872 SV%. His struggles mirror those of Toronto, who sit at the bottom of the Atlantic Division with an early 3-4-2 record.
Meanwhile, Florida is off to a 5-2-2 start with Jacob Markström, who has posted a 3-1-1 record in five appearances. The writer notes that Bobrovsky has recovered from poor starts before, including a career-worst opening stretch in 2015-16 with Columbus, suggesting the 37-year-old could still rebound.
