Maple Leafs HC Jim Hiller Gets Backing on Sergei Bobrovsky Call

Toronto Maple Leafs head coach Jim Hiller received backing from analyst Jay Rosehill regarding his continued support of goaltender Sergei Bobrovsky. Bobrovsky faced intense criticism from fans following a 5-4 defeat against the Seattle Kraken on Wednesday, October 28. Despite calls for change, Rosehill supported Hiller's decision to back the veteran netminder rather than benching him for Anthony Stolarz.

Speaking on Daily Faceoff's "The Leafs Morning Take," Rosehill argued that fan reactions were exaggerated and asserted that Bobrovsky's veteran experience would help him rebound. While co-host Nick Alberga questioned why Stolarz was not used in relief during the third period, Rosehill maintained that supporting the goaltender offers the best path forward.
