, who was coming off a year in which he played well, albeit in a very small sample size.
The Leafs surprisingly gave Mrazek a three-year contract worth $11.4 million. Not a back-breaking sum, but the term was a clear gaffe. Mrazek rewarded the Leafs with arguably the worst season of his career, playing in just 20 games with a 3.34 goals-against average and career-worst .888 save percentage.
Mrazek battled injuries throughout the season and the Leafs quickly admitted the mistake, having to drop 13 spots and move out of the first round of the 2022 draft just to shed the final two years of Mrazek’s bloated contract. The Leafs made a similarly-poor acquisition this past season with Matt Murray, which will present some complications moving forward.This was no bargain, but the acquisition cost to land Muzzin in 2019 was well worth the price. Muzzin provided much-needed toughness, leadership, and reliable play for a Leafs defence group that severely lacked it.
