J.S. Giguere has come out swinging in the media when talking about his young teammates. The Veteren NHL goalie is understandably frustrated after another weak performance by the Maple Leafs and a sixth straight loss.
“This is a young group; we should have energy every game,” said Giguere, after the 4-0 loss to Tampa Bay on Tuesday night. “We shouldn’t be tired. We have lots of days off.
