For Andrew Raycroft there is life after the Maple Leafs

Quietly Andrew Raycroft is putting together a solid season as a backup to Canuck starting goalie Roberto Luongo. He has appeared in 14 games with a record of 8-4-1 and career best in goals against average and save percentage. His turn around may be due to low expectations playing behind one of the NHL's best goalies.  But it may have a lot to do with playing in front of a stong Canuck defense.  This season he has faced an average 27 shots per game which is a pretty light load. In 2007-08, his last with the Leafs, he faced an average of 32 shots per game.

This is how the two seasons compare:

		Games	Record	GAA	SV%
Toronto	2007-08	16	2-9-5	3.92	.876
Vancouver	2009-10	14	8-4-1	2.21	.920

Just two years ago after being bought out by the Leafs it looked like his career as an NHL might be rather short. At only 30, he seems to have found a home in Vancouver as a backup.
